Emergency Microsoft Patching – October 2008

October 23, 2008 by IRIS Staff

Microsoft has release an emergency patch for all versions of its OS. Hermes, winsww, ris and print will be patched and rebooted tonight at 6pm.

If you have not already done so please make sure you have installed KB958644 on all your Windows hosts.

This is the best description of the vulnerability I have found so far; http://www.intelliadmin.com/blog/2008/10/smb-vulnerablity-found-emergency-patch.html

I am in process of patching all other EECS Windows host.

Thanks.
