Microsoft to Issue Out-of-Cycle Patch for IE

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the download-reboot-repeat dept.

rsw writes "Microsoft will be breaking their normal patch cycle and issuing a patch for the Download.Ject attack (a.k.a. Scob). They claim that the forthcoming patch will be a "long-term solution to the core vulnerability" exploited by Scob." Note that this does not mean that they are replacing IE with FireFox.
