Exploits Circulating for Latest Windows Holes

1sockchuck writes "Exploits are already circulating for at least two (and possibly four) of the Windows security holes addressed in Microsoft's updates on Tuesday. Several working exploits have been released for a new vulnerability in Windows Plug and Play technology, which could be used to spread a worm targeting Windows 2000 machines, according to eEye security, which has released a free scanner to help network admins identify vulnerable computers."

So isn't this just an old exploit that was just found?

No. This is an old vulnerability that was just published, and had new exploits written and published for it. That is not to say other exploits have not existed for this vulnerability for the last five years.
