PHP2Shell, a pair of critical flaws in PHP, was one of them. Details leaked before the planned disclosure, frontier AI helped researchers find the flaws, and PHP shipped fixes the next day.

What does governed autonomous IT look like in practice? Software finds where a risk lives and ranks what matters most.
It proposes a fix, then, inside limits people define, carries it out and checks that it worked. Routine, low-risk actions can run on their own.

PHP2Shell reportedly sat undetected for more than a decade. For these two flaws, the fix was a version upgrade.
