It didn’t take long for exploit code to become available after last week’s Microsoft bug fix for the vulnerability in Windows Media Player. The code is distributed in 2 ways: a simple cleartext program where the shellcode has been altered and a widely deployed toolkit called e2. This causes a visitor to a web site to be redirected to another which then launches an attack. The result is that a machine can be completely taken control of so make sure your weekly MS patches are installed.
