Rather than worry about their malicious software making it past Microsoft’s anti-malware technology, attackers could simply exploit this flaw to run their malware automatically once their suspicious file is scanned. Last week, Google security researcher Tavis Ormandy reported to Microsoft a flaw in its Malware Protection Engine, a technology that exists in most of Redmond’s malware protection offerings - including Microsoft Forefront, Microsoft Security Essentials and Windows Defender. The installation of Adobe Flash Player is a breeze, and the worst that you have to worry about is the length of time that it takes to install. Separately, Adobe has a new version of its Flash Player software available that squashes at least seven nasty bugs. The advantage of the latest Adobe Flash Player is how it will automatically detect if you have a PC that runs the 64-bit or 32-bit version of Windows. Microsoft actually issued an emergency update on Monday just hours ahead of today’s regularly scheduled “Patch Tuesday” (the 2nd Tuesday of each month) to fix a dangerous flaw present in most of Microsoft’s anti-malware technology that’s being called the worst Windows bug in recent memory.
