As much as you may wish to defend Micro$oft, the effect, and I suspect the underlying motives here are pretty obvious. See news.google.com/sci-tech, and try to figure out how many patches for how many individual vulnerabilities were actually dealt with, as far as the news media can tell. Extra credit: guess how soon this disinformation will be spun into the fewest number of patches/vulns possible by the Micro$oft pimps. Who's got it right: MS score card: four patches, 20 vulns, heaps of trouble The Register, UK - 6 hours ago Microsoft Releases Flurry of 'Critical' Patches InternetNews.com, United States - 5 hours ago Microsoft offered over 30 patch updates as part of its monthly allotment.. MICROSOFT CORP.: Patches to address flaws in Windows Chicago Tribune (subscription), IL - 7 hours ago Microsoft Corp. released three critical patches Tuesday to fix... Microsoft issues patches to fix 20 Windows, e-mail security flaws Boston Globe, MA - 10 hours ago By Bloomberg News, 4/14/2004. Microsoft Corp., the world's biggest software maker, issued patches to fix 20 flaws... Microsoft puts out 4 security patches Seattle Post Intelligencer, WA - 13 hours ago Microsoft Corp. released three critical patches yesterday to fix Windows security flaws... Microsoft issues fixes for 21 flaws Sydney Morning Herald, Australia - 17 hours ago By Sam Varghese. Microsoft has acknowledged the existence of 21 vulnerabilities in various versions... Microsoft warns of a score of security holes ZDNet.com - 21 hours ago Microsoft released on Tuesday fixes that cover at least 20 Windows flaws... Well, which is it? 3, 21, 20, "over 30", "at least 20"? This is being done deliberately by Micro$oft to put itself in the best possible light. - John -- 10 print "Home" 20 print "Sweet" 30 goto 10 _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
