Microsoft has released WMF Patch

A remote code execution security issue has been identified in the Graphics Rendering Engine that could allow an attacker to remotely compromise your Windows-based system and gain control over it.

Get the patches here:
XP

Server 2003

Server 2000

XP X64

Server X64

This security Issue is a Hot Potato and I suggest anyone running any of the above Windows software get the appropriate patch and install it.

If you have automatic updates turned on or do a regular manual windows update, the patch will already be installed.

- Kitform If you have automatic updates turned on or do a regular manual windows update, the patch will already be installed. Alot of people including myself keep automatic updates turned off as it's a royal pain in the (_;_). If your one of these people I highly recommend you install it.
