Ages ago I used php-nuke to manage my forum and it got hacked and I thought it would get taken seriously

Seeing these CPanel hacks remind me how old these codebases are and how much more vulnerability remain

Cpanel is Perl, not PHP. Probably the grayest of the gray beards. Perhaps not enough Perl Wizards left to maintain it nowadays.

Php-nuke was the hacking testing ground. Nuke was atrocious for exploitation.

I don't agree that "old" necessarily implies vulnerability.
