Bad bug found in Microsoft browsing code
Google has released details of a bug in Microsoft's browsing programs that would allow attackers to build websites that make the software crash. The bug was found in November, but details are only now being released after the expiry of the 90-day deadline Google gave Microsoft to find a fix. Microsoft has yet to say when it will produce a patch that removes the bug. In a statement, Microsoft did not comment directly on the bug and its significance but said it had a "Customer commitment to investigate reported security issues and proactively update impacted devices as soon as possible". The publication of information about the browser bug caps a difficult period for Microsoft and the security of its software.
