  Windows Security Update Targets Elevation of Privilege Attacks
Time: 06:16 EST/11:16 GMT | News Source: Ent Mag | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Microsoft this week is continuing its ongoing investigation into what it calls "new public reports" of a vulnerability that could allow hackers to gain superuser privileges through LocalSystem in Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008.

Redmond late last week issued a Security Advisory adding Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3 to the list of affected software. The advisory provides IT pros with some guidance and workarounds to help avoid a vulnerability that may allow elevation-of-privilege attacks.

The software giant said it is considering other actions, including the provision of a "security update" via its monthly Patch Tuesday security rollout.
