Meme: fixing a PHP vulnerability by geoblocking everyone outside Japan
A sarcastic post from @vlusky_husky with about 8,800 likes mocks a geoblock-as-a-fix approach.
@vlusky_husky wrote that 'they solved the PHP vulnerability issue by simply geoblocking any IP from outside of japan.'
The post continues with heavy sarcasm: 'incredible work. foolproof solution. no issues here.'
Why it mattersBlocking foreign IPs can cut off some attack traffic, but it doesn't patch the underlying bug. The joke is that the vulnerability is still there for anyone who can reach the site from inside Japan.
