Microsoft this week released more security patches than usual, to the point that the latest cumulative update solved 115 vulnerabilities in Windows 10 and other products, making it the biggest security patch you have ever released.
Do you remember WannaCry or NotPetya? Attacks that paralyzed corporate and corporate systems around the world in 2017.
Well, this failure opens the doors to similar problems. The good thing is that the company has released an emergency patch that you can now install through the Windows Update section of your computer.
The vulnerability is a very serious bug in the SMBv3 protocol that was leaked this week without giving Microsoft time to fix it. According to some experts, it is similar to the EternalBlue vulnerability.
SMBv3 is for sharing files, printers, and other resources on local networks and the Internet.
The bug known as SMBGhost will allow the attacker to connect to remote systems h, thus executing malicious code with high privileges, so that it is able to control the entire system.
The error can be exploited, according to many antivirus companies, worms that spread themselves and infect one computer after another, similar to the way WannaCry and NotPetya vulnerabilities are created, are created.
Microsoft did not plan to release the patch this month, but after the vulnerability was leaked I was forced to do so, for this reason, even if I update two days ago, today in Windows Update you will see a new cumulative update ready for download and installation.
