Pirat_Nation 🔴(@Pirat_Nation):A developer left a PHP server vulnerable to the new PHP2Shell flaws and put a Bitcoin key on it, challenging hackers to steal the funds. After around 19 hours, a researcher known as KillaBoi successfully exploited the vulnerability and extracted the private key. The wallet contained around $2,000, but the key turned out to be linked to the wrong wallet, so the funds couldn’t actually be taken. The dev still confirmed the exploit worked and paid the researcher the prize.
