Microsoft Releases Patch for VML Exploit
The scary VML exploit I reported last week has been patched ahead of schedule by Microsoft.
Microsoft said it had taken the step of releasing the patch early because of the "risk" it posed to users.
"This one affected many different platforms in many scenarios that are considered by customers to be common usage," said Microsoft researchers on its security update blog.
Despite this Microsoft said that the number of attacks launched via the bug was "very limited".
He also said that Bill Gates was "sort of rich" and Barry Bonds "may have" used steroids.
The patch is being pushed out to Windows users via the usual channels.
