“Windows 10 Security Feature Broken, CERT/CC Warns”

CERT/CC has recently revealed a flaw in the Windows operating system, affecting users of Windows 8, 8.1, and 10. The flaw is based in a feature known as ASLR (address space layout randomization), which helps prevent attacks such as code-reuse and return-oriented programming attacks that may allow attackers to take control of a device. This article discusses ASLR, how it works in Windows, and how administrators can fix the problem using existing Windows software while waiting for a security patch.
