Microsoft fixes IE zero-day vulnerability
- USA: Wednesday, January 16 - 2013 at 07:21
Microsoft has released an update for Internet Explorer to close the zero-day vulnerability which had already been used in several targeted attacks recently, PC Magazine has reported. The company said in its security advisory the fix addresses the critical flaw in Internet Explorer versions 6, 7, and 8. "The majority of customers have automatic updates enabled and will not need to take any action because protections will be downloaded and installed automatically," Microsoft said in the advisory. "Users who update IE manually are strongly encouraged to apply the update as quickly as possible."
