Serious security flaw in Microsoft's virtual machine (VM) found on most
Windows PCs could allow an attacker to take over a user's system, Microsoft
warned late Wednesday. A fixed version of the software is available. Microsoft's
VM is used for running Java applications on Windows PCs and comes with most Windows
and Internet Explorer versions. All builds up to and including build 5.0.3805 are
affected by eight
security flaws, six of which pose a "low" or "moderate" risk to users, Microsoft
said in security bulletin MS02-069. (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS02-069.asp)
