Time: 07:50 EST/12:50 GMT | News Source: eWeek | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

;p>Microsoft is again urging users to apply a patch for a vulnerability in the Windows Server service. The company reported earlier that a new variant of the Conficker worm has surfaced to target the flaw.

Microsoft advised organizations yet again to deploy the patch for a flaw affecting the Windows Server service that was fixed in October.

The latest attacks are coming courtesy of a new variant of the Conficker worm, identified by Microsoft as Win32/Conficker.B. According to the company, the variant is hitting machines that have not applied the fix, while also spreading via network shares by attempting to log in to machines using a list of weak passwords.
