Users of websites worldwide have been affected by a security vulnerability within a programming language called PHP, which has been used internationally since the 2000s to build websites.
If Google's Blogger (which hosts this blog) is affected we would expect Google to take action to limit the ability of hackers to get in. In any case there is no personal data held here except your name if you have used it in comments. If you have a Google account then that is also a different matter.
There are no PHP elements in our website (norphil.co.uk and norvic-philatelics.co.uk) which has been written entirely by me using HTML3 since 1998. I wouldn't know where to start with PHP (or CSS for those who know what that is!)
If our online shop is affected then the host, Freewebstore, will take appropriate action.
