CVE-2010-1885: 1 month later (Better then 7+ years)

Today Microsoft is releasing the patch to fix CVE-2010-1885, the Windows Help and Support vulnerability made public by Tavis Ormandy.  It took Microsoft just over 1 month to patch.  Clap Clap.

This is much better then the SMBRelay attack (MS08-068) patch which took 7+ years.

Patch Tuesday: Windows XP Help and Support Center Exploit

The Windows Help and Support Center vulnerability (CVE-2010-1885) gets patched today.  This update will also be the last update for Windows 2000 and Windows XP Service Pack 2. (Sniff)  If you plan on using XP SP 2, you'd better hope that no more vulnerabilities are discovered going forward.
