Windows 10 - I'm too stupid to use it!
In article
emailer.net Fritz Wuehler fritz@spamexpire- 201712.rodent.frell.theremailer.net wrote: Windows 10 Bundles a Password Manager. Password Manager Bundles a Security Flaw https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/new...security-flaw/ So it really has nothing to do with Windows 10 development or security. It was a third party plugin developed by a Linux company. Got it. A Windows 10 image came bundled with a third-party password manager, Keeper, which came with a glaring browser plugin flaw -- a malicious website could steal passwords. Ormandy's copy was an MSDN image meant for developers, but Reddit users noted that they received the vulnerable copy of Keeper after clean reinstalls of regular copies and even a brand new laptop. A Microsoft spokesperson told Ars Technica that the Keeper team had patched the exploit (in response to Ormandy's private disclosure), so it shouldn't be an issue if your software is up to date. Also, you were only exposed if you enabled the plugin. Keeper was developed by the linux community for Linux, Windows, Mac and Android. |
