Microsoft releases three new patches
Microsoft released three security bulletins yesterday, one 'critical' and two 'important', which between them cover all Windows platforms.
The 'critical' flaw, which affects almost all versions of Windows, consists of a buffer overrun in the Windows HTML Converter which could allow an attacker to execute code of their choice.
The second vulnerability , classed as 'important', is also a buffer overrun that could lead to data corruption and allow an attacker to execute code of their choice. This vulnerability affects XP, 2000 and NT.
The third vulnerability , classed as 'important' and only affecting Windows 2000, allows a local user to elevate their privileges by exploiting the Accessibility options for disabled users.
