Not about PHP! don't worry. I'm PHP, node and python developer and I think that all this problems are same on all languages (or very similar).

Java XSS - stackhawk.com/blog/java-xss/
Python/Django XSS - stackhawk.com/blog/django-xss-exam...
NodeJs XSS - stackhawk.com/blog/nodejs-xss-guid...

And PHP is a language, not a framework ;)

I'm really curious about security, and how can be PHP insecure as language it self, not with code examples of people that don't know how to code.

Thanks!

Hey! I think that statement can be actually true. Some time before some attacker hacked my server by uploading his php script and executing it by accessing it's url. I found out that this is a common scenario happening ofter with Wordpress plugins for example.

There is a reason why enterprise grade applications rely on spring framework.
