  Researchers: Microsoft to patch Windows password flaw
Time: 00:37 EST/05:37 GMT | News Source: APC Mag | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Microsoft will patch a flaw in the Windows operating system Tuesday that could give attackers access to passwords on a victim's system, according to security vendor SkyRecon Systems.

"During our ongoing research into the Windows LPC (Local Procedure Call) interface, we found an important vulnerability which could be used to gain elevated privilege and then execute code in the LSASS process," SkyRecon said in a statement e-mailed to IDG News.

The flaw will be patched in Microsoft's upcoming set of security patches, set to be released around 11 a.m. Pacific time Tuesday, the company said.
