That video was published 4 hours ago by lcfr_hax, the embargo ended four hours ago. Was it posted earlier and then deleted or something?

That video ended the embargo. If someone releases a video telling you how to run an embargoed exploit, it's not an embargoed exploit any longer.

That's not how embargos work.

de jure de facto

The embargo was announced for Oct 21 14:00 UTC: https://www.php.net/archive/2026.php#2026-10-20-1

The video was posted 44 seconds before that time: https://x.com/lcfr_hax/status/2112906567662399830

This can't possibly be interpreted as some major violation of the embargo, so what are people talking about?

The video was posted hours early, quickly deleted (but not before being reshared), and then posted again at the proper time. The link in your comment is not the first release of the video

It was posted yesterday 24h before and then deleted.
