Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the first official Windows bugs of 2003! Hold your applause, please. Windows 2000, XP and NT 4.0 servers are suffering from a nasty buffer overrun flaw that might let attackers run code on your PC. MS calls the problem, found in the software's Locater Service, critical and urges a quick patch job. The company has also sounded the alarm on flaws with Content Management Server 2001 and Outlook 2002 -- patches are also available for them.
