There is a big danger in the internet. Researchers find a heavy security hole. The hole affects the programming language PHP. Almost 80 percent of all web pages use this language. Attackers can control foreign servers through the hole.
Experts call the problem PHP2Shell. There are already millions of attack tries. Many offices and firms switch off their web pages. They want to protect their data.
For normal users there is little direct danger. The hole is not on phones or computers. It is only on the servers of the web pages. Users can notice problems in daily life. Experts advise: All server operators must make a security update fast.
