‘Extremely Critical’ Microsoft Windows Vulnerability Found
Another Windows vulnerability has been found and this time, it’s scary.
Important points on this:
(1) This is an ACTIVE exploit
(2) The solution is to avoid browsing “untrusted sites”, i.e. the INTERNET
(3) It affects Vista on down–virtually every Windows OS
(4) It exploits the animated cursor functionality and can result in arbitrary code execution on the victim’s machine
This is a serious problem. Let’s hope Microsoft has out a fix soon.
