A security researcher has discovered a new Mac vulnerability that can seriously affect some Mac owners, even though most users should be relatively safe
Microsoft is working to patch a vulnerability in Internet Explorer that allows attackers to bypass the same origin policy, inject malicious code into websites, and steal cookies, session and login details.
Microsoft has released another patch for Windows 10 build 9879 and this time they are addressing the bug that caused Explorer to crash frequently. The update is available now via Windows update but know that it does require a restart to complete the install.
In the past few weeks the Internet has seen numerous reports of a new bug that affects Lumia 925 and Lumia 1020 smartphones running Windows Phone 8.1. The bug reportedly freezes the phone where the smartphone fails to wake up from sleep mode. As a result users have to force a soft reset in order to make it work again.
You may not realize this but the smartphone in your pocket is a computer of its own – it has a processor, RAM memory, then some internal memory, a video chip and finally a display. All this hardware is run by software, created by humans and as we know humans tend to make mistakes. So get ready to find a bug or two here and there.
Microsoft is a software company that has been known for years to release software that then must be fixed with numerous patches. What we are about to describe will go beyond your imagination, though – the US company has finally fixed a critical software bug that has existed for 19 years.
