> Yeah this looks like it's going to go on history as the worst vulnerability ever

Yeah no.

This is bad but doesn't even crack the top ten.

Which ones would you say are worse, and why?

  • I'm not them, but I'd say Conficker and those other windows file share worms were worse. They went after peoples personal computers rather than web servers so affected people less aware of how to deal with it. It's a little early to tell what this php one will all affect though.

  • The Microsoft SMB remote-root holes had much wider impact... you had things like railway station monitors going offline.

    At the end of the day, nobody gives a shit if another WordPress blog gets hacked.
