🇺🇸 HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMERICA! 🇺🇸
Celebrating 250 Years of Independence
With much Love and Gratitude for this Beautiful Country. ❤️🙏🇺🇸
Over 70% of websites worldwide use the PHP scripting language.
So this is kind of a BIG deal. 👇
Effective Immediately, all organizations using PHP for their systems are advised to be prepared for an update addressing two critical vulnerabilities. PHP is widely used for web applications. These vulnerabilities often provide a direct path to the server's file system or database. If an immediate update is not feasible, it is recommend that organizations take the system offline until it can be fully mitigated. NSA will follow up shortly with more specific guidance.

OpenAI models helped researchers—operating as part of our Patch the Planet initiative—discover critical security flaws in PHP, an open-source programming language used to run an estimated 70% of websites.
Over the past two months, we led a coalition of maintainers, researchers, and security providers to prepare fixes and protections ahead of disclosure. This duration was necessary because the fix was quite intricate and required a major change to the PHP engine. Every site using PHP can now safely upgrade their version to stay secure, in addition to applying mitigations from various security vendors.
Due to the severity of these flaws and PHP’s widespread use, we consider this bug to be one of the most impactful vulnerabilities in recent memory. It also marks a new phase, where AI can find security bugs with internet-scale impact.
This is an example of the Defender’s Window in action: to our knowledge, frontier AI was able to find this vulnerability ahead of attackers, giving defenders time to prepare.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
OpenAI may claim a role in the coordinated response and patching process. But the initial discovery and exploit development, however, occurred several months earlier by an independent researcher.

If you are a Massachusetts voter who cares about the future of our country,
PLEASE take 30 seconds to view this clip before you cast your ballot for U.S. Senate. Thank you! 👇
Another life-long Massachusetts Democrat voting for @DeatonforSenate.
This is happening folks! 👇
This is how democracy is done.
Get out and vote.
And don’t buy the BS that @SenMarkey is spreading. I’m a lifelong Democrat and I’m voting for Deaton.

Never forget Fairshake poured millions into Elissa Slotkin after she posed as pro-crypto.
Then she voted against the Clarity Act.
Ask Fairshake how much they actually spent on John Deaton (@JohnEDeaton1), the most pro-crypto candidate ever.
Make it make sense.
🚨 WTF?! Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI) just announced her plan is mass political persecution of Trump allies to FRIGHTEN young conservatives away from getting involved with him
"I want young people to say, should I go work for the Trump admin? [...] I want them to be like, lord, that might buy myself a TON of PROBLEMS I don't want. Let me avoid participating."
She just says it plainly 🤯
Slotkin wants a list of "signature cases" against Trump officials, and she named Kristi Noem, Doug Burgum, and Jeanine Pirro
All this from the same party that spent four years screaming about "retribution" and "weaponization!"
VOTE RED AT ALL COSTS.

This gentleman has NO CLUE about AI.
And he wants another 6 year term in the Senate.
Massachusetts voters really need to retire @SenMarkey on Nov. 3.
Watch this. 👇

Ed Markey is ASSUMING he will still be a Senator next year.
He is taking the Massachusetts voters for granted.
@JohnEDeaton1 is out every day connecting with real working class people to EARN THEIR VOTE.
Let’s send Markey a message on Nov. 3.
Choose @DeatonforSenate.
Just 30 days after calling for a ban on stock trading by members of Congress,
Ed Markey followed the instructions of the Democrat leadership and voted AGAINST the bill that would ban stock trading by members of Congress.
Trump and his fossil fuel cronies are making millions from his illegal war of choice while families get tipped upside down at the pump and grocery story. This why we need to ban stock trading for Trump and members of Congress.

“Crypto voters will remember who stepped up and who didn’t.”
—@brian_armstrong
We are still waiting on @brian_armstrong and Fairshake to “step up” and support the People’s Champion @JohnEDeaton1 against the Anti-Crypto Army’s Ed Markey.
It’s not too late Brian.
@DeatonforSenate.
The 2024 election proved the importance of the crypto voter.
@standwithcrypto is now much bigger, with over 4M members.
Crypto voters will remember who stepped up and who didn't.
FEARLESS SEC Commissioner @HesterPeirce has been on the RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY all along. 👇
What an incredible indictment of the SEC under the "leadership" of @GaryGensler.
"The Commission dismisses the possibility of making practical adjustments to our registration framework to help entrepreneurs register, and instead rewards their good faith with an enforcement action."
"The release sends a message that we are uninterested in facilitating innovation and competition in the financial markets and instead seek to protect incumbents."
--Hester Pierce, SEC Commissioner
Incredible.

My former law partner Stephen T. Gannon (@BankSecLaw) has just released the second edition of his book—Banking on Blockchain.
It is the definitive work on the legal and regulatory issues in this area. You can pick up a copy at the American Bar Association online bookstore,

We appreciated @brian_armstrong’s public endorsement of @DeatonforSenate in 2024.
Now, we could really use some funding to put @JohnEDeaton1 over the top.👇
Agreed - Massachusetts residents should vote for @JohnEDeaton1
Crypto holders in MA should realize @SenWarren is the one who got Gary Gensler his job and encouraged him to (unlawfully) try and kill the crypto industry in America. Luckily they did not succeed as we and others fought back.
She is anti-freedom, thinks the government should run all financial services (similar to China), and has done enormous harm to this country.
When @coinbase faced an existential threat from the SEC, @JohnEDeaton1 stepped up.
John filed a brief in support of Coinbase’s position on behalf of 4,701 Coinbase customers.
And, just as in the Ripple & LBRY cases, John was PAID NOTHING for those services.
When Coinbase (and the whole industry) were in trouble, @JohnEDeaton1 stepped up because that’s who he is—ONCE A MARINE, ALWAYS A MARINE. 🇺🇸
Now John needs our help.
The only question is: Will industry leaders like @brian_armstrong step up to support @DeatonforSenate ?
Here is the SuperPAC I formed to support John’s candidacy: 👇
