[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The flaw affects Internet Explorer ([url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/96457.html]IE[/url]) versions 6 to 11 and Microsoft said it was aware of "limited, targeted attacks" to exploit it.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]According to NetMarket Share, the IE versions account for more than 50% of global browser market.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Microsoft says it is investigating the flaw and will take "appropriate" steps.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The firm, which issued a security advisory over the weekend, said the steps "may include providing a solution through our monthly security update release process, or an out-of-cycle security update, depending on customer needs".[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]XP impact[/b][/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]However, the issue may be of special concern to people still using the Windows [url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/96457.html]XP[/url] operating system. [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]That is because Microsoft ended official support for that system earlier this month.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]It means there will be no more official security updates and bug fixes for XP from the firm.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Cyber security firm Symantec said it had carried out tests which confirmed that "the vulnerability crashes Internet Explorer on Windows XP". [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"This will be the first zero day vulnerability that will not be patched for Windows XP users," it added.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]About 30% of all desktops are thought to be still running Windows XP and analysts have previously warned that those users would be vulnerable to attacks from cyber-thieves.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][url=http://www.enread.com/news/life/96457.html]Microsoft[/url] has suggested businesses and consumers still using the system should upgrade to a newer alternative.[/size][/font]
