Severe TeamViewer Vulnerability Let Attackers Steal System Password

A security researcher found a severe vulnerability affecting Windows versions of the application 8 through 15. When exploited, the vulnerability lets an attacker steal the system password, making it trivial to further compromise the operating system. The developers said the vulnerability doesn’t seem to be actively used in the wild. Since TeamViewer is a popular application, it will take a long time for people to upgrade their clients, allowing attackers to exploit this security issue for quite a while. The only solution is to update the application to the latest version as soon as possible.”]
