WMF security vulnerability puts MS windows users at risk

Posted by David Morton Thu, 05 Jan 2006 06:23:00 GMT

A recent bug in ALL versions of Microsoft Windows is a high risk to all unpatched systems (Which is everyone, because MS has not released a fix yet.) A 3rd party patch being recommended by many reputable security firms is available here. Simply download and run the appropriate file and it should protect you.

It does not matter if you have up to date virus protection… this flaw can get you infected simply by viewing an infected picture on any web site.

UPDATE

MS did finally release an update, so check your windows update!
