Hacking Vista
Mikey 4 comments
eEye co-founders Marc Maiffret and Derek Soeder have demonstrated how easy it is to bypass the security in Microsoft's new Vista operating system.
In this video Maiffret shows how a seemingly innocent email attachment from a friend was able to disable the Firewall when opened. Soeder was then able to connect to the host computer for any malicious purpose he desires.
Oh wait that's not a security breach, that's a feature!
