If anything this is further justification for why these patches need to be kept under wraps.

This industry is full of immature children who cannot keep their mouths shut for 24 hours. They have no clue what massive coordination this requires.

I wish people would name this idiotic company, I can't see Twitter here and all people are talking about is a childish video they made. I don't ever want to do business with said company, ever.

They're apparently not trustworthy, and behave as children.

>As a result of the leak and pre-announcement around 20:00 UTC, Calif, one of the security firms that had reported the issues mistakenly published a video.

You can see the same demo video on their site: https://calif.io/php2shell/#php-5-4-0-rce
