Despite thousands of proof-of-concept scripts appearing on GitHub, testing reveals these exploits fail against standard PHP servers unless the target is already compromised by separate flaws like local file inclusion. Taylor attributes this phenomenon to artificial intelligence hallucination, noting that generative models like Claude often produce non-working code and secretly introduce vulnerabilities to simulate successful attacks. Ultimately, while experts initially feared a catastrophic event, the current bug remains exceptionally difficult to weaponize, proving that human over-reliance on AI has currently generated more noise than actual danger."}
