WMF FAQ (NEW) | |
|
||
| Time: 11:48 EST/16:48 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: John Quigley | ||
|
Why is this issue so important? The WMF vulnerability uses images (WMF images) to execute arbitrary code. It will execute just by viewing the image. In most cases, you don't have click anything. Even images stored on your system may cause the exploit to be triggered if it is indexed by some indexing software. Viewing a directory in Explorer with 'Icon size' images will cause the exploit to be triggered as well. Is it better to use Firefox or Internet Explorer? | ||
