Microsoft admits critical flaw in nearly all Windows software

Microsoft Corp. acknowledged a critical vulnerability Wednesday in nearly all versions of its flagship Windows
operating system software, the first such design flaw to affect its latest Windows Server 2003 software.

Microsoft said the vulnerability could allow hackers to seize control of a victim's Windows computer over the
Internet, stealing data, deleting files or eavesdropping on e-mails.

The disclosure was unusually embarrassing for Microsoft because it demonstrated the first such serious flaw in the
company's powerful new computer server software, billed as its safest ever.

The software is aimed at large corporate customers and was the first product sold under a high-profile
"Trustworthy Computing" initiative organized last year by Microsoft founder Bill Gates...

...The announcement came one day after the Department of Homeland Security announced that it awarded a
five-year, $90-million contract for Microsoft to supply all its most important desktop and server software for about
140,000 computers inside the new federal agency.
