What the page says

_Curator's reading of the capture._

Inc42 (India), 24 October: who is at risk from PHP2Shell and how businesses stay safe. Because the flaws are in PHP itself, website-level security alone is not enough. On discovery it says Calif credited a pseudonymous researcher, LCFR, with first discovering PHP2Shell and developing a working exploit; separately OpenAI said Calif identified a critical flaw using its GPT-5.6 Sol model, while Wiz independently discovered and reported both vulnerabilities.

> Security firm Calif credited pseudonymous researcher LCFR with first discovering PHP2Shell and developing a working exploit.
