Microsoft To Patch Zero-Day DNS Flaw

[HardOCP News]

Windows users need to clear their calendar on “patch Tuesday” because Microsoft is releasing seven security bulletins, including a fix for that zero-day flaw that crooks are already taking advantage of.

The bulletins, part of Microsoft's monthly patch cycle, are slated to provide fixes for an undisclosed number of security vulnerabilities in Windows, Office, Exchange and BizTalk, Microsoft said on its Web site Thursday. The issue affecting BizTalk also relates to "Capicom," a developer component to add cryptography to applications.

Security flaws definitely give many Microsoft employees something to do every day.

Wouldn't be a problem is the population acted responsibly.
Hacker A: "Oooh, look at this dude"
Hacker B: "oooooooo"
Hacker A: "lets exploit this"
Hacker B: "hold on I have to go smoke some crack first"
Hacker A: "alright man"

New products = new code = new vulnerabilities. And the band played on.

(Be sure ta patch, me laddies.)
