More XP SP2 security holes?
p2pnet.net News:- Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) has ten unpatched vulnerabilities, says Finjan Software.
“Microsoft, however, ardently disputed the claims and said that they were ‘potentially misleading and possibly erroneous’,” says a TechWeb story.
It quotes Finjan as saying it’s given Microsoft technical details on the vulnerabilities and with proof-of-concept code demonstrating how the holes could be turned into full-fledged security attacks.
When used singly or in combination, the vulnerabilities would let a dedicated hacker surreptitiously gain control of a PC when the user browses a malicious Web site, TechWeb has Gil Aditi, Finjan’s chief security officer, saying.
