A new zero-day flaw discovered in Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 does not affect Windows 7 as previously reported. While the vulnerability is present in Windows 7's Release Candidate, the issue has been fixed for the final version of the software. Microsoft has yet to report when it will release a patch for Vista and Server 2008.
The flaw could allow an attacker to gain control of a system, although Microsoft said that "most attempts to exploit this vulnerability will cause an affected system to stop responding and restart."
