Microsoft found itself in a huge bind a few days ago. A security report inadvertently detailed an exploitable issue in various Windows versions. Dubbed the Windows PrintNightmare bug, the printer-related unpatched vulnerability would allow attackers to execute code remotely on systems. Microsoft hurried out a Windows PrintNightmare patch that’s available to install right away. The fix works on Windows 10 version 1607, Windows Server 2012, and Windows Server 2016. The patch isn’t perfect, however. While Windows users should update their systems as fast as possible to gain protection against remote attacks, some issues remain.
