Microsoft ships fixes for Excel, WordPad malware attacks
Closed Published April 22nd, 2009 in Browser Security, Exploits & Vulnerabilities, Internet Explorer, Malware
Microsoft’s April batch of security patches are out: 8 bulletins with patches for at least 20 documented vulnerabilities.
The most serious of the flaws could lead to remote code execution attacks that give a malicious hacker complete ownership of a vulnerable machine. This month’s fixes cover several code execution bugs that are currently being actively exploited (Microsoft Excel and Microsoft WordPad) and two issues that have been publicly known for at least a year (token kidnapping and Safari-to-Internet Explorer blended threat).
