  Gimmiv worm feeds on latest Microsoft bug
Time: 09:04 EST/14:04 GMT | News Source: ComputerWorld | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

One day after Microsoft issued a rare emergency Windows security patch, the bad guys have a few new ways to take advantage of the bug.

By today, security researchers had identified a new worm, called Gimmiv, which exploited the vulnerability, and a hacker had posted an early sample of code that could be used to exploit the flaw on the Web.

Microsoft issued the patch more than two weeks ahead of its next security updates because the bug could be used to create an Internet worm attack and Microsoft had already seen a small number of attacks that exploited the flaw.
