Plus more pain for Intel which fixed 43 bugs, SAP and Adobe also in on the action
Microsoft has disclosed 90 flaws in its products – six of which have already been exploited – and four others that are listed as publicly known.
"An unauthenticated attacker could repeatedly send IPv6 packets, that include specially crafted packets, to a Windows machine which could enable remote code execution," the Azure giant said. This vulnerability is only exploitable only if there is a program listening on a Pragmatic General Multicast port. If PGM is installed or enabled but no programs are actively listening as a receiver, then this vulnerability is not exploitable.
"An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by taking advantage of the unchecked return value in the wnv.sys component of Windows Server 2016. By manipulating the content of the Memory Descriptor List , the attacker could cause unauthorized memory writes or even free a valid block currently in use, leading to a critical guest-to-host escape."Regarding the bot, Microsoft says:"This vulnerability has already been fully mitigated by Microsoft.
