Too urgent to wait
Microsoft has issued an patch for the Windows cursor flaw
after it was discovered that the technique had been used in a public exploit.
The Redmond Giant was planning to wait until April 10,
but will now issue the patch tomorrow.
According CNet, testing had been completed earlier than
anticipated and so the company decided to release the update ahead of schedule
to help protect customers.
Microsoft believes that the attacks and customer impact will be limited, but
the company said that it encourages customers to download the patch when it is
made available.
Microsoft said it is also working with law enforcement to track down the
attackers.
