Attackers construct sophisticated scripts that can be seamlessly embedded within seemingly innocuous JPEG files. When an unsuspecting user downloads such a compromised image, the embedded malicious c

Two new “proof of strategy” exploit plans initial appeared yesterday and ended up posted to Internet sites and Web newsgroups frequented by security gurus. The new code is a lot more risky than an exploit to the vulnerability that appeared before this 7 days (see Tale), as it permits destructive hackers to operate their unique code on susceptib
