Internet Explorer vulnerability used in Operation Aurora

George Kurtz on the “Aurora” Exploit In Google Attack Now Public:

As reported on Thursday by McAfee and confirmed by Microsoft, the security vulnerability affects Internet Explorer on all recent versions of Windows. An attacker could gain complete control over a vulnerable system by tricking a user to visit a rigged Web page. New versions of Windows make this exploitation harder, but not impossible.

Waw, this is pretty insane...
