If you haven't applied the latest security patches to your Windows PC, you should head on over to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com and get the critical updates at least. Source code has just been released to show how to crack the latest flaws that were just patched in Windows.

The two flaws threaten different pieces of the computing infrastructure. The PCT vulnerability puts Web servers that use Secure Sockets Layer encryption features at risk. Such servers are common in e-commerce applications, allowing intruders to target high-value computers with the vulnerability. The LSASS flaw affects almost every Windows computer that has not yet been patched, leaving the door open to a worm attack.
