Hackers attempted to exploit security vulnerabilities in the widely used programming language PHP several days before the flaws became public, according to cybersecurity researchers at Amazon.com Inc.

The flaws were revealed on Oct 21 and forced governments and organisations across the world to take websites offline as a precaution as they worked to implement a security update.
