Third-party application developers and the WMF flaw

["Richard M. Smith" <rms () computerbytesman com>]

Hi,

Since Microsoft has known about the WMF flaw for many years, I wonder what
kind of efforts, if any, Microsoft has made to notify third-party
application developers of the problem and offer work-arounds.  If no efforts
were made, why not?  Are there other security issues in the Windows
operating system that need the attention of application developers that
Microsoft is not informing developers about?
