Thats right kiddies the fix is already out there.. The vulnerability was discovered and fixed in the same day, by the same person.

Thank God that everyone in the world will simultaneously upgrade to the patch -- and nobody will fail to apply the patch /SARCASM

Lets see what is Microsofts time between a vulnerability announcement and a fix? usually on the order of three weeks? This one was less than 24 hours. This instance demonstrates the strenght of open source development *code review*

Everyone in the world does not have to update, only those running gig ethernet card in their servers, this eliminates desktops and low end servers.
