Hi everyone,

As usual the holiday season is a busy time for everyone including those of us here in the MSRC. I hope that everyone has finished their holiday shopping so they can enjoy the long weekend. This is Mike Reavey by the way in case anyone was wondering.

Aside from discussing the holidays, the reason I am dropping in on the blog is that right now we are closely monitoring developments related to a public posting of proof of concept code targeting an issue with the Client Server Run-Time Subsystem. The PoC reportedly allows for local elevation of privilege on Windows 2000 SP4, Windows Server 2003 SP1, Windows XP SP1, Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista operating systems.
