Hackers claim to have unearthed a zero-day vulnerability giving attackers admin rights to any Windows machine from Windows 2000 to a fully patched version of Windows 10.

Microsoft has spoken out publicly acknowledging the zero day listing s existence, but has stressed it cannot verify the authenticity of the claim.
