| Microsoft has released four new patches for Windows XP (one of which we mentioned earlier), some important security 
ones and other basic support items. 
  NET Framework ASP.NET Session State Security Hotfix:
  When working with Microsoft ASP.NET, a component of 
  the Microsoft .NET Framework provides for session state management through a variety 
  of modes. One such mode, called StateServer, stores session state information 
  in a separate running process that can run on either the same machine as the ASP.NET-based 
  application or on a different machine. An unchecked buffer in one of the routines 
  handles the processing of cookies in StateServer mode, resulting in a security 
  vulnerability. Windows XP Patch: Windows Management Instrumentation Cannot
