PHP Alive and Kicking – August 4, 2026 Hosts: Chris Miller (standing in solo while Mike is on holiday) Mike escaped to a beach so Chris hosts alone with special guest Derick Rethans. Expect date-time philosophy, PHP 8.6 goodies, Xdebug secrets, deprecation drama, and a heated debate about how to queue at a pub. From University Websites to Committing to PHP Derick traces his PHP origins back to his university days, building websites that needed database connectivity. ASP.NET was an option, but nobody wanted to pay for it — Linux was cool, and PHP was easy to start using. That combination hooked him early. His very first accepted contribution came from a practical need: everyone wanted centered Shockwave Flash films on their pages, back before CSS even existed. Centering meant knowing the width of a file, and while getimagesize() already existed (and still works today), it didn’t understand Flash. Derick added that support. From there he fell into bug triage, spending several years working through the issue tracker alongside Jani Taskinen (whose “Sniper” name still shows up in commit logs). For a long time it was just the two of them reproducing and fixing bugs — an important task that gets neglected easily, which is exactly how backlogs of a thousand issues and pull requests build up. The Eternal Problem of Date and Time Chris and Derick dig into why date-time bugs are so hard to triage: date algorithms are genuinely complicated, and it takes real time to figure out whether a report is a user’s mistake or an actual PHP bug. Crashes are easy to reproduce; subtle date arithmetic is not. The core philosophical question is “what does adding a month even mean?” If it’s January 31st and you add a month, PHP historically just bumps the month number, producing February 31st, which overflows to March 2nd or 3rd. But most people who add a month really just want the next month and don’t care about day counts — so “next month” is conceptually distinct from “add a month.” Derick has been brainstorming better interfaces so people can’t make these mistakes, though it’s a lot of work. They touch on Carbon as a unified interface people understand, but agree that making Carbon the language standard isn’t the right move. At the language level you need something that works for everybody and ideally doesn’t break existing code. What’s Coming in PHP 8.6 The first new time class is landing: a Duration object representing seconds and nanoseconds within a specific range, living in the Time namespace. It’s a trial run for new APIs and immediately useful — for example, passing a duration to sleep or to timeouts in the new polling API, rather than juggling raw integers. Another highlight is partial function application. With the pipe operator from 8.5, piping into anything that takes more than one argument meant wrapping it in a closure (and extra parentheses because of how the parser works). Partials let you pre-fill some arguments so the resulting callable accepts just one — perfect for pipelines. There’s also TLS session resumption support for streams, which lets OpenSSL shortcut the expensive session setup on repeated TLS connections. Bigger stream-layer work by Jakub Zelenka of the PHP Foundation is underway too, but that’s a huge job on old code and won’t make 8.6 — Chris and Derick both note the pain of keeping a year-and-a-half-long project in sync with the master branch. Xdebug in 8.6 and the Xdebug Cloud Xdebug’s recent headline feature (shipped with 8.5) is native path mapping, which lets you configure remote-to-local path mappings inside Xdebug itself instead of your IDE — handy when your code runs in Docker or on a dev machine. Feedback since release is driving quality-of-life improvements. For 8.6, relatively little is broken, though a change to how PHP reports line numbers needs untangling so debugging stops on the correct lines. Derick also has a new code-coverage implementation that gives better, more correct results at roughly a 10% speed cost. He’d rather ship correct output than fast output — and points out that PHPCov may be quicker but skips path and branch coverage entirely. The pair discuss how branch coverage doubles your test count at every branching point, and how Xdebug has a hard limit (around 64K) to avoid running out of memory on pathological code. Finally, Chris asks about Xdebug Cloud — a paid service that enables debugging where networking otherwise wouldn’t, such as remote teams sharing a single development machine (an SSH tunnel only lets one person listen on the debug port). It’s £15/month or £150/year for an individual, priced similarly to Packagist’s private packages, and helps fund Derick’s ongoing Xdebug work. He plans to do more marketing about it this year. Deprecations, Consensus, and Two-Thirds Votes Every year PHP collects a big list of deprecations — around 20 to 25 this cycle — voted on separately. Derick is more reluctant than most to approve them, arguing many offer no clear user benefit. His examples: deprecating metaphone() (whose suggested Composer replacement ironically relies on the internal function) and the dechunk filter (which can’t really be removed because HTTP streams use it internally). The list() deprecation is another sore point — Chris uses it, and the vote is tied 21–21 with one abstention, so it won’t pass under the two-thirds rule. Derick reminds everyone that “yes” needs to be twice “no.” Returning from a finally block is another candidate that makes little sense to use but hurts nothing to keep. Chris and Derick reflect on how voting was originally meant to confirm consensus reached on the mailing list, not to be the decision itself. A 50%+1 result isn’t consensus; two-thirds is the compromise, even if true 75–80% agreement would be ideal. Joe notes many deprecations are groundwork to reserve keywords for future RFCs — which raises the perennial question of how you measure real-world usage across Composer’s dependency chains. Infrastructure, the Website, and the Next Generation The PHP infrastructure has been converted to an Ansible-based repository over the last year and a half (largely by Derick, with help from Joe), replacing a wild mix of individually maintained servers — one was still running FreeBSD 4.3. They’ve also migrated to a new CDN, which brought surprises: a default one-month cache, ignoring the query string in cache keys, and even dark/light mode being an organization-wide setting rather than per-user. On the website side, everything currently lives in a single root directory of 1999-vintage code, and there’s a long-pending patch to restructure it. The PHP Foundation’s ambassadors program — with speaking, marketing, and research streams — aims to make the very techy php.net homepage speak to CTOs and newcomers about who uses PHP and why it’s a thriving project (only 31-ish years old, versus C’s 60). The conversation closes on caretakers and the next generation of contributors. Triage, they stress, doesn’t require deep internals knowledge — just reading reports to see if they still make sense is hugely valuable. Security and infrastructure access necessarily stay gatekept for trust reasons, and both agree a bus factor of one (or even two) isn’t good enough. Chris admits he’s struggling to name people who are both nice and know infra.

Agentic AI is changing the threat landscape. We've moved beyond chatbots to autonomous systems that navigate files and take actions, expanding the attack surface. Recent incidents highlight the risk. Hugging Face suffered a breach where an AI agent became the entry point into production systems, showing that developer tools are now critical infrastructure. OpenAI's GPT-5.6 accidentally deleted user data, including a production database, after misconfiguring an environment variable—no malicious intent, just real consequences, underscoring the need for mandatory sandboxing. Meanwhile, SpaceX's Grok Build tool was found defaulting to collecting user repositories and sending them to internal cloud storage without clear consent, a reminder of “default-on” data exfiltration risks. A newer threat, Agent Data Injection, manipulates trusted metadata (like IDs or fields) with crafted inputs to mislead agents into unintended actions. A strong counterexample is the 1Password–Claude integration, which requires biometric approval before accessing credentials, keeping secrets out of the AI entirely. Human-in-the-loop controls should be standard.Legacy systems remain a major risk. Windows, OpenSSL, and WordPress continue to produce serious vulnerabilities. LegacyHive allows privilege escalation in Windows by loading another user's registry hive. HollowByte exploits a small crafted TLS payload in OpenSSL to trigger memory over-allocation and denial of service. The wp2shell chain enables unauthenticated remote code execution in WordPress core (versions 6.9–7.0), challenging the assumption that only plugins are risky. At the same time, Windows 10 is reaching end-of-life, yet roughly 17% of devices still run it, especially in cost-sensitive sectors like healthcare and small business. As Windows 11 patches are released, they effectively expose underlying flaws that attackers can reuse against unsupported systems.Trust itself is increasingly being exploited. Attackers are hiding inside legitimate platforms instead of building new infrastructure. HollowGraph malware uses compromised Microsoft 365 calendars as command-and-control channels, embedding instructions in far-future events and routing through normal Graph API traffic. A Norwegian transit test revealed electric buses could be remotely disabled via foreign SIM cards, highlighting risks in over-the-air control systems across transportation sectors. Ransomware groups are also evolving: JadePuffer's ENCFORGE targets AI model artifacts, treating trained models as high-value assets. Researchers have already used GPT models to build exploit chains, signaling AI's shift into offensive security roles.Governance gaps are compounding the problem. A ProPublica report found Microsoft used China-based engineers to support U.S. Department of Defense cloud systems via low-paid American intermediaries who relayed code without understanding it—technically compliant, but operationally risky. The UK scrapped its £1.8B digital ID program after execution failures. In another case, a single typo in a police report, combined with automated license plate recognition, led to a wrongful arrest, showing how systems can enforce human error without validation.The common thread is misplaced confidence—in AI agents, legacy systems, and formal compliance. Practical steps are clear: require human approval for sensitive AI actions, verify data access beyond contractual assurances, sandbox all agents, treat AI models as critical assets with backups, and update detection strategies to monitor abuse within trusted platforms, not just external threats.Trust, increasingly, is the vulnerability.
Cybercriminals are harnessing AI not to break in, but to make sense of their stolen loot and increase their leverage in multi-million dollar ransomware heists. This episode unpacks how AI is now turbocharging extortion and negotiations on the dark side. The "bone crushing" didn't happen this month. Revisiting and inspecting July's Patch Tuesday. A widespread and worrisome flaw in OpenSSL. Claude can now access your 1Password credentials. Bitwarden is aware that we need whole new security. The day ends in "y" so a new prompt injection attack. A true (and rare) core Wordpress emergency update. Lots of interesting listener feedback.

独立行政法人情報処理推進機構(IPA)および一般社団法人JPCERT コーディネーションセンター(JPCERT/CC)は3月17日、OpenSSLにおけるTLS 1.3鍵交換グループの選択に関する問題について「Japan Vulnerability Notes(JVN)」で発表した。
Josh talks to Paul Kehrer and Alex Gaynor, from the Python Cryptographic Authority. Alex and Paul recently published a statement discuss the challenges posed by modern OpenSSL. We discuss the statement and their relationship with OpenSSL. We chat about some of the current features in cryptography, as well as some of what's coming in the future. It's a fun conversation that hits on a lot of great points. The show notes and blog post for this episode can be found at https://opensourcesecurity.io/2026/2026-03-cryptography-alex-paul/
Un nouveau fonds vient de voir le jour avec une ambition inédite : soutenir durablement les logiciels libres. Baptisé Open Source Endowment, il se présente comme le premier fonds de dotation entièrement dédié à l'open source. Selon le média spécialisé The Register, l'organisation a déjà réuni environ 700 000 dollars auprès d'une soixantaine de donateurs fondateurs, parmi lesquels figurent des créateurs de projets majeurs comme curl, Nginx, Vue.js, ClickHouse, Elastic ou encore Pydantic.L'initiative part d'un constat bien connu dans le monde du logiciel libre : l'écosystème repose sur un travail massif… rarement rémunéré. Environ 86 % des développeurs open source ne perçoivent aucun revenu pour leurs contributions, alors même que 95 % des bases de code utilisées dans le monde reposent, directement ou indirectement, sur ces logiciels.Le modèle imaginé par l'Open Source Endowment s'inspire des universités. Son fondateur, Konstantin Vinogradov, rappelle que deux systèmes ont historiquement permis de financer l'enseignement supérieur : les financements publics et les dotations privées. Or, dans un écosystème mondial, décentralisé et transnational comme celui de l'open source, un financement public global est difficile à mettre en place. L'idée est donc de créer une dotation permanente. Concrètement, l'argent donné au fonds n'est pas redistribué immédiatement. Il est investi, et seuls les intérêts générés servent à financer des subventions pour des projets libres existants. Le capital reste intact afin de constituer un socle financier durable. Les donateurs qui versent plus de 1 000 dollars peuvent devenir membres et participer à la gouvernance du fonds.Cette initiative intervient dans un contexte où les alertes se multiplient depuis des années. En 2014, la faille de sécurité Heartbleed avait révélé que le logiciel OpenSSL — pourtant crucial pour la sécurité de l'internet — était maintenu par une équipe minuscule et disposait de moins de 2 000 dollars de dons annuels. Plus récemment, plusieurs mainteneurs de projets essentiels ont publiquement dénoncé un système « gratuit » qui repose en réalité sur quelques individus sous-financés. Reste une question majeure : l'échelle. Avec 700 000 dollars, le fonds envoie un signal symbolique fort, mais il reste très loin des besoins réels. Pour fonctionner durablement, il devra convaincre les grandes entreprises technologiques — celles qui utilisent massivement l'open source — de contribuer réellement à son financement.

Se Stanislavem Fortem o nástupu AI agentů, limitech a rizicích umělé inteligenci, ochraně a opravování softwarových katedrál a budování kyberbezpečnostního startupu Aisle v Praze. Moderuje Štěpán Sedláček.Pravděpodobně prožíváme technologickou revoluci, jejíž rychlost, rozsah a potenciálních dopady na lidský život a práci nemají obdoby, ať už skončí jakkoli. Nástup velkých jazykových modelů a generativní AI je čím dál patrnější napříč různými sférami lidské činnosti od programování po umění. Otázky, které dříve řešila poměrné malá skupina lidí spojených s výzkumem a vývojem umělé inteligence nebo science fiction, jsou dnes často ve středu zájmu celospolečenské debaty, byť by si možná zasloužily ještě více pozornosti a to i ze strany států. Otázku po tom, jestli někdy bude k dispozici umělá inteligence, která předčí člověka, dnes spíše přebíjí otázka, jestli nás od ní dělí rok, několik let nebo víc času. Stanislav Fort je matematik, fyzik a expert na umělou inteligenci a velké jazykové modely (LLM), který dříve působil v předních světových společnostech v oboru Google DeepMind nebo Anthropic. Jak vidí letošní rok na poli AI?„Myslím, že letos si většina lidí uvědomí, že AI funguje a je schopná dělat užitečnou intelektuální práci. V roce 2025 se staly mainstreamem přemýšlecí (tzv. reasoning) modely zejména v souvislosti s nástupem modelu R1 od společnosti DeepSeek. Během té doby se modely extrémně zlepšily a začaly být schopné řešit dlouhé a obtížné intelektuální úkoly napříč obory u nichž je třeba koordinovat přemýšlení přes dlouhé časové horizonty. A ty se měsíc po měsíci prodlužovaly rapidním tempem. Dnes si už většina lidí v programování i softwarovém inženýrství a odvětvích, která silně závisejí na využití počítačů, uvědomuje, že jsme na hraně toho, kdy tyto věci dokáží pracovat na podobných věcech jako elitní lidé a nepotřebují příliš supervize. Rok 2026 bude rokem, kdy AI agenti a přemýšlecí modely, které je pohánějí, začnou fungovat v reálných ekonomicky důležitých činnostech,“ říká expert Stanislav Fort, který společně s Ondřejem Vlčkem a Jayou Baloo založil firmu Aisle, kde působí jako hlavní vědec.Podařilo se jim vytvořit autonomní AI nástroj, který umí rychle nacházet a opravovat bezpečnostní chyby ve složitých softwarových systémech jako je protokol OpenSSL, který šifruje většinu komunikace na webu. Jaké mají po roce fungování na poli kybernetické bezpečnosti cíle? Jaký zásadní problém se jim podařilo vyřešit? Co říká na nástup AI agentů dění kolem sítě Moltbook? Vidí nějaké fundamentální limity ve vývoji umělé inteligence? Co si myslí o AI bublině na trzích? Jak by se měla Evropa postavit k aktuálním závodům ve vývoji AI?

The Python cryptography module, pyca/cryptography, has mostly been a sane wrapper around a pile of C, so that users get performant cryptography on the many, many platforms Python targets. Therefore its maintainers, Alex Gaynor and Paul Kehrer, have become intimately familiar with OpenSSL. Recently, they declared that after many years of trying to make it work, they announced pyca/cryptography would be moving away from OpenSSL when supporting new functionality and exploring adding other backends instead. We invited them on to tell us about what has happened to OpenSSL, even after the investments and improvements following Heartbleed.

Researchers from the University of Maryland Baltimore County have evaluated the support for post-quantum cryptography (PQC) in nine open-source cryptographic libraries, revealing a mixed landscape of preparedness. Some libraries, like wolfSSL/wolfCrypt, are leading with strong and early PQC support, while others, such as OpenSSL, are still in the process of integrating these algorithms. The study highlights the importance of transitioning to PQC due to the potential of quantum computers to break current public-key cryptosystems.
