Windows 7 UAC exposes a second security vulnerability

A security vulnerability exists in UAC (User Account Control) that was exposed to Windows 7 Beta not long ago. When malware or code attempts to turn off UAC, the system does not prompt Users, and Microsoft has argued that this is not a loophole, and said that it will not be modified in the official version of Windows 7. A wave of unrest has arisen. When the debate over this issue is over, the Internet has exposed Windows 7 UAC. The second vulnerability, which is much more serious than the first security vulnerability, is that under Windows 7's default security settings, malware can exploit this vulnerability to upgrade itself to administrator privileges without turning off UAC functionality. UAC doesn't give any reminders.

That is to say, computers using Windows 7 Beta are currently at risk, and researchers remind users that if you are currently using Windows 7, then it is best. Set UAC to the highest level to avoid potential problems.

Although Microsoft denied the first exposed Windows 7 UAC vulnerability, but for the latest exposure of the vulnerability Microsoft We have to make any comment. There are rumors that Microsoft has these issues will release an official statement and the corresponding solutions.
