Microsoft knew about IE6 flaw for months ? MICROSOFT WAS MADE AWARE of the zero-day IE6 flaw five months before it released the 'emergency' out-of-band ms10-002 patch to finally fix the problem yesterday. The release was hurriedly cobbled together to patch the hole in Internet Explorer that was thought to have given Chinese hackers, possibly working for China's government, access to Google's internal systems and human rights activists' Gmail accounts. http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/...e6-flaw-months |
Someone at google actually uses IE? O—o |
...think you misread this. an exploit on client's end using IE bug. says nothing about google using IE |
How did they Access the internal Systems then? |
it were clients using IE6 which were used to attack google site using exploit in IE to bypass certain security barriers from what I've understood. the "internal systems" = gmail. which for google is "their system" ;) Quote:
