A new zero-day vulnerability was recently made public following a Tweet from @SandboxEscaper. The vulnerability was verified and confirmed to be working on a fully-patched 64-bit Windows 10 machine, enabling attackers to gain admin privileges if exploited. A Microsoft spokesperson claims the company will proactively update impacted devices as soon as possible, potentially during a Patch Tuesday release. Its unclear if the bug would work on all Microsoft supported Windows versions, including 32-bit ones, but its definitely cause for concern, since the PoC is publicly available.”]
