Microsoft Unleashes A Hailstorm of Patches | |
|
||
| Time: 14:25 EST/19:25 GMT | News Source: InformationWeek | Posted By: Brian Kvalheim | ||

Vendor fixes flaws in its Internet Information Services and Windows Media Services software. Microsoft on Wednesday released a batch of patches that fix security holes in several versions of its Internet Information Services software. IIS versions 4, 5, and 5.1 are vulnerable to what is known in security circles as a cross-site scripting attack, according to Microsoft. It's a sophisticated attack that requires the attacker to lure a Web surfer to visit a specially designed Web site and open a link. The request to open the link is sent to another IIS server, and that server can send a script that would run on the user's machine and make it vulnerable. | ||

#2, LOL they think 2 patches is a hailstorm. What would they call 50 patches for Redhat?
1st Patch is not needed for people that work at home, or their computer is only used by them. 2nd Patch is not needed for most of these same people, as most of us don't host web services on our local computers. |
