Today Microsoft released a security update that fixes a remote code execution vulnerability in the Windows Server Service. This is a serious vulnerability and we have seen targeted attacks using this vulnerability to compromise fully-patched Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 computers so we have released the fix “out of band” (not on the regular Patch Tuesday).

Hi, This is Christopher Budd. Following up on my post from last night, I wanted to let you know that we’ve released MS08-067 today. This security update resolves a vulnerability in the Server service that affects all currently supported versions of Windows. Windows XP and older versions are rated as “Critical” while Windows Vista and newer versions are rated as “Important”.

I spent a lot of time trying to think about what to write for a BlueHat pre-conference blog entry and had a pretty hard time focusing on one topic. To handle this, I decided to comment on the state of security. While I’ve found plenty of things to be excited about with security, including improved awareness, ~~~~enhanced vendor responsiveness to issues (although some still lag behind), increasing global awareness of security concerns, etc.
