Greetings everyone,

Those who're running Windows 10, are urged to patch their OS with Microsoft's latest patch update. The attack takes advantage of a zero day vulnerability In Internet Explorer.

Patch your Windows 10 device quick, as hackers are currently taking advantage of a zero-day “Double Kill” flaw in Internet Explorer to infect PCs across the globe. The fix is part of Microsoft’s latest Patch Tuesday update for Windows 10, addressing the vulnerability discovered by the Qihoo 360 Core Security team in late April.

According to the team, hackers can embed a malicious website inside an Office document. Once opened, the embedded site deploys malicious code and its payload from a remote web-based server. The attack also bypasses the User Account Control component in Windows 10, acquiring administrator-level privileges. The attack is executed within the system memory as well, thus you’ll find no evidence of foul play on the device’s local storage.
