The new zero-day vulnerability on Windows 10 helps hackers take control of the computer
Recently, a security researcher called @SandboxEscaper posted on social networking information Twitter a zero-day vulnerability on Windows 10.
This is a serious security vulnerability that could allow hackers to attack and gain control of computer devices. Not long after the announcement of this account has been deleted.
This new zero-day vulnerability is detected in the Task Scheduler software, an application in the Advanced Local Procedure Call (ALPC) interface, which grants permission to allow users to access the system. However, exploiting this vulnerability is complex and if successful, a hacker can easily take control and download malicious code to the victim's computer.
With this serious security hole, Microsoft will soon release a patch in the near future, which may begin on September 11.
