[Verse 1] October twenty-seven, the calendar's cold, PHP Group drops two cracks in the mold, First one's called Memory Corruption, write it down, One-oh-nine-six-one-eight, wearing a frown, Picture a warehouse, boxes stacked tall and tight, Every slot numbered, every shelf feels right, But the counter skips a beat, writes past the last shelf, Spills into boxes that ain't labeled for itself, That's out-of-memory corruption, data bleeding through, No login needed, no password, no who's who, Attacker just walks up, no badge, no key, Remote code execution — running loose and free, On PHP, the engine under half the web, Feel that? That's the floorboards starting to ebb. [Chorus] PHP, PHP, two cracks in the frame, One-oh-nine-six-eighteen, one-nineteen the same name, Memory spilling, state gone stale, Unauthenticated — no password, no fail-safe veil, Patch the engine before the night gets long, Two CVEs singing the same old song. [Verse 2] Now the second crack, listen close, don't blink, One-oh-nine-six-nineteen, stale request-state link, Think of a ticket stub from a show that's done, Usher still waving you in like the night's just begun, PHP holds onto data from a request long passed, Treats old info like fresh, like it's built to last, Attacker hands back that expired little slip, Server reads it wrong, lets the control room flip, No credentials, no handshake, no knock on the door, Just stale memory trusted like it's new once more, Remote code execution, same ending as before, Two bugs, one vendor, cracking the same floor. [Chorus] PHP, PHP, two cracks in the frame, One-oh-nine-six-eighteen, one-nineteen the same name, Memory spilling, state gone stale, Unauthenticated — no password, no fail-safe veil, Patch the engine before the night gets long, Two CVEs singing the same old song. [Bridge] Same vendor, same day, two different doors, One breaks the counter, one trusts the old chores, Millions of sites run on this quiet machine, Blogs, shops, logins — the whole backstage scene, You don't need a password when the bug's the key, That's what unauthenticated really means to me. [Verse 3] Picture the dev team, burning the midnight oil, Tracing the overflow back through the coil, Rewriting the counter, sealing the seam, Scrubbing the state cache clean of the dream, Changelog drops quiet, a line in the dark, CVE numbers lighting up like a spark, Sysadmins scrolling, coffee gone cold, Weighing the risk of the story untold, Every server a target till the update lands, Every unpatched box resting in stranger hands, This is the rhythm of the modern machine, Patch cycles pulsing behind the screen. [Outro] So admins, check your versions, don't let it slide, Two PHP flaws with the doors open wide, One-oh-nine-six-eighteen, one-nineteen too, October twenty-seven — patch before they find you.
