If you enjoy reading my blog, you could consider supporting me on Patreon. It was 10 in the morning on a Monday, and we were all silently working on our laptops. There was a hasty atmosphere, and everyone tried to concentrate on the task ahead.

So we did the only thing we could do: manually update all of our websites, some running a very outdated version of our framework.

In the end we never actually got to know whether the bug had been exploited: it was discovered by accident by one of our colleagues over the weekend, and we didn't keep access logs longer than a few days.
