The Abstract Syntax Windows Flaw | ||
|
Posted 12 February, 2004 The latest security patch from Microsoft addresses a serious
security flaw. Microsoft have released a serious security patch for Windows
XP, 2000 and NT. It is essential that you install these patches. We suggest
visiting the Windows
Update website and downloading any critical updates. It is likely the Windows Update site will be overwhelmed. If you
can't get through, you can manually download the update from Microsoft's advisory
page. The advisory page has more information on the problem as well as the
patch files. There is no information about Windows 95, 98 and ME being affected. Currently,
it appears they do not have this flaw. It is important to take this warning seriously. While there are no reported
viruses or hacks taking advantage of this weakness, we almost certainly will
see them appearing in the next few weeks. Keep ahead of the bad guys with keeping
your system up to date.
