So I'm at work and amongst other things I'm keeping a very close eye on all the anti virus manufacturers websites just in case some miserable git DOES release a nasty new virus today when I find out about the
latest MS security hole. It turns out that there are actually 3 more buffer overflows in the RPC service allowing execution of arbitrary code in 2 cases and a DoS attack in the other.
Worse than this, there are 8 ports that can be used to attack (plus 2 more if CIS is enabled, one of which is port 80fs!) a vulnerable system and as 4 of them are UDP ports (remember how fast slammer spread?) this is potentially the worst vulnerability MS have ever managed to inflict on us all.
Question is how long will it take before there's an exploit in the wild? My guess is by Friday at the latest and I really really don't think I'm going to be off this weekend any more
