Microsoft is supposed to move GDI to userspace in vista, which should cure atleast this problem of not being compartmentalized.

Anyway.. keep watching the skies. Next week could see an even more widespread exploitation I guess.
Could anyone provide some useful information/procedures, how I could go about testing this on a computer LAN'ed with me?
Testing what???

As it has been 24 hours since we elevated the Infocon to yellow in response to the WMF 0-day exploit, we will be lowering the Infocon level to Green
An advisory has been released by Microsoft, working snort signatures are available and as a result of raising the Infocon to yellow yesterday, awareness of the issue has been raised appropriately.
Moving to greent signifies that no -new- significant threats are currently being tracked and is not intended to imply that the threat level today is any less than it was yesterday. See Infocon Levels for more information. Administrators and others responsible for system security are encouraged to act appropriately if no action or incomplete actions have been taken at this time.
It's all clear.. It's not a vulnerability (again) :p
And that fix is fun :)
So.. YEY more beer..
BTW: I've seen a please download this wmf pop up in konqueror for this one 'nasty' site I was visiting..
Perfect.... Here's my new "satellite office".... Built by my own hands and the reason I have been so "quiet" around here of late..... It doesn't slope like that..... I was "sloping" while I took the picture.... hic... ;)Quote:

Hmmm,
It'll look better when you get the optics and beer pumps installed :D
:drink:
The optics will be a problem since the bar was built to give the best view of the lake which isn't visible in the picture provided.... There is a fridge and a 32 bottle wine cooler built into the back though which works nicely for my "tinnies" and sweetie's wine.... ;) The tap may come in the future as will the flat screen TV between the left hand two windows.... :D
Here's a better view of the current setup.....
