  Newly discovered Vista vulnerability to be fixed in SP2
Time: 23:55 EST/04:55 GMT | News Source: Ars Technica | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Three security researchers, Marius Wachtler, Michael Burgbacher, and Carson Hounshell recently found a vulnerability in Windows Vista (with or without SP1) that could allow an attacker to remotely take control of a PC.

Craggs and Unterleitner work for Phion AG, the security company that published details of the vulnerability. The problem, which is in the Device IO Control, affects both 32-bit and 64-bit editions of Vista (XP is unaffected). The problem can be exploited in two different ways to cause a buffer overflow that can corrupt the memory of the operating system's kernel.
