"Microsoft always urges users to update programs when it ships
a Service Pack, but an easily exploited Windows XP flaw makes it
especially important that users of the operating system
download and install the newly released SP1 promptly, several
security experts warn.
The Win XP flaw is described as a still little-known but critical
vulnerability, and is described as "trivially easy" to exploit by some
who have studied it. It could allow files on any PC running
Windows XP to be deleted simply by clicking on a malicious URL,
according to bug hunter's reports."
"The exploitation of a single easily designed URL that
immediately erases the files in any directory of a Windows XP
system will prove irresistible to the world's script kiddies," Gibson
says. "All that's necessary is posting a note anywhere on the
Internet for hapless users to click. Game over."
