That time of year is here again

"VUPEN Security ‏@VUPEN

We've pwned MS Surface Pro with two IE10 zero-days to achieve a full Windows 8 compromise with sandbox bypass #Pwn2own"

This is among other vendors. Being so close to patch tuesday I can only hope certain vendors can patch them correctly, and soon. Putting them off to the next patch tuesday likely will not be acceptable.

Google Chrome has been updated.

I'm so glad I have plugins on click to play, and those still using IE... Well good luck on getting any patches this tuesday.

Since IE 10 was pawned, I suspect we may see some out of band other than March Patches

Without knowing the source, apparently Avast is reporting there is an update for IE 10, however it's not available on Windows Update at this time.

I have the same "NEW" reported version Avast is talking about. Not familiar with the "LOCAL" version Avast is reporting.

So Microsoft is bad at syncing updates for IE for those who choose to disable that to make sure it doesn't cause problems as I do not like to reboot often, and updating IE usually requires a reboot. I cannot find a manual download for this at this time also. KB2718695 has been used more than once with previous versions, and doesn't offer the download.

I don't think that's new. My IE10, installed but not used or updated since,

»IE reborn: Internet Explorer 10 arrives on Windows 7

has exactly the same dialog. Why do you think it's "new"?

That version KB2718695 in my screenshot is the version I obtained from their download site below when Microsoft first released IE10 for consumer release a week or so ago.
»windows.microsoft.com/en-CA/inte···anguages
I do have auto updates enabled from within the browser, however, there have been no future updates to IE10 since that version release.

Oh, I don't think it's "NEW"... I'm just stating that I have the same reported "NEW" version Avast is claiming.

Ahhhh. Well I use FF and that has been patched, to 19.0.2, already

BTW are you running IE10 under EMET? I am (not that I use it anyway).

Well that system I pulled the information from was a Win 8 system.

Maybe, either way I don't use IE as my preferred browser. I even changed the built-in flash in IE to be click to play by removing the * in it's properties which makes it play on all sites by default as on previous operating systems I wouldn't install flash for IE at all.

Not sure if that helps against the exploit but it can't hurt. I run FF under EMET
