New Exploit for Unpatched Windows Flaw | |
|
||
| Time: 11:25 EST/16:25 GMT | News Source: Washington Post | Posted By: Chris Hedlund | ||
|
It appears we will be ringing in the new year with a new and improved exploit that online miscreants can use to attack an unpatched Microsoft Windows flaw and install spyware, viruses and other dangerous digital intruders. The latest bit of malware takes advantage of the same Windows Metafile (files ending in .wmf) security hole that Security Fix warned about earlier this week, the one where Windows users can get infected just by clicking on a specially crafted link in an e-mail or visiting a Web site that hosts the malicious code. | ||
