Microsoft Security Hole -- Again.

Microsoft Security Hole -- Again

I don't even feel like bitching about it again:

Microsoft released an advisory Wednesday night warning all users of its Windows operating system of two new critical flaws that could allow a attacker to take control of a victim's PC.

The critical flaws occur in the software giant's implementation of the Java Virtual Machine, which allows platform-independent programs to run on a PC.

"(The flaws) could enable an attacker to gain complete control over a user[base ']s system," stated the advisory. "This would enable the attacker to perform any operation that the user could, such as running applications; communicating with web sites; (and) adding, deleting or changing data."

I've blogged several other issues with security recently but that's enough.  Two in one week: Do I Need a Life ?  Or does Microsoft need a clue?
