Kernel vulnerability found in Vista

Computer News

A flaw in Vista’s networking has been found that can crash the system, but no fix is expected until the next service pack

A flaw has been found in Windows Vista that could allow rootkits to be hidden or denial-of-service attacks to be executed on computers using the operating system.

Microsoft told ZDNet UK on Friday that it had investigated the issue, but was “currently unaware of any attacks trying to use the vulnerability or of customer impact.” It could not, however, confirm the inclusion of a fix for the problem in the next as-yet-unreleased service pack for Vista, nor give the release date for that service pack.
