Final IE 0day Update: Microsoft Out-of-Cycle Patch Available

September 21, 2012 By Corey Nachreiner

If you’ve read my two posts [ 1 / 2 ], and watched this week’s video, you already know all about the zero day vulnerability plaguing Internet Explorer (IE) this week. In my last update, I mentioned Microsoft promised to release a full, out-of-cycle patch for this serious vulnerability today. True to their word, they did just that.

Since you know all about this flaw already, I won’t bore you with the details again. However, I highly recommend you go download, test, and install this update immediately. The patch is your best protection against the attacks in the wild.  — Corey Nachreiner, CISSP (@SecAdept)

    Sorry for any confusion Corey. Was attempting to forward the security post to someone in WG as an easy way to stay up-to-date – didn’t realize it was auto-forwarded.
