Microsoft breaks patch deadline to release critical NT4 updates | |

Microsoft has issued patches for two critical holes in Windows NT4 as part of its January patch update. Support for NT4 officially ended on 31 December, but last week the company appeared to have backed down and offered two critical patches for NT4 server users. The first concerns users of Internet Explorer 6.0 Service Pack 1, running on any of the supported platforms (NT4, Windows 2000 SP3 and SP4, Windows XP SP1 and SP2, Windows 2003 and Windows 98/Me). The security hole concerns the ActiveX HTML help component in Internet Explorer. Microsoft said, "An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a malicious web page that could potentially allow remote code execution if a user visited that page. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system." | ||
