This episode covers the critical unauthenticated RCE vulnerabilities in the core PHP runtime and the Brotli compression library, alongside the LiteLLM supply chain attack that exposed master keys. The discussion also touches on Sam Altman's comments regarding the inability to patch all AI-generated bugs, the fact that it took 40 years, but FOSS got what they wanted. I also chat about the eMudra TLS certificate key weakness.
