Windows SMB: Accidental bug disclosure prompts emergency security patch<\/h1>\n

Microsoft released an out-of-band security update to patch a remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability impacting Server Message Block (SMB) on Thursday, just two days after its regular Patch Tuesday releases.<\/h3>\n

The software vendor was obliged to rush out a fix after security partner inadvertently disclosed details of the flaw, which is of a type previously exploited by high-profile threats such as the\u00a0WannaCry worm<\/a>.<\/h3>\n

If left unaddressed, the vulnerability (CVE-2020-0796) in Microsoft SMB 3.1.1 (SMBv3) could be exploited by a remote attacker to plant malicious code on vulnerable systems.<\/h3>\n

Exploitation would involve sending a specially crafted, compressed data packets to a targeted SMBv3 server.<\/h3>\n

The flaw stems from bugs in how \u201cMicrosoft Server Message Block 3.1.1 (SMBv3) protocol handles certain requests\u201d, an\u00a0advisory<\/a>\u00a0from Microsoft explains.<\/h3>\n
