    Youzers! A lot of applications possibly loading incorrectly.

    Indeed a lot of application are affected.

    In regards to Vipera Bofors it was not a cannon, it was composed by explosive material and it was launched against mine fields in order to make a breach

    Home users need not really worry seriously....the attack is more relevant towards corporate environments imo. But it's still good to see this list - there's lots of Adobe software unpatched there
    They call me the mysterious one...

    Thank you leo for the information. Only 4 affected programs along with their corresponding solution status VLC media player 1.x, Wireshark 0.x & 1.x, uTorrent 2.x, Apple Apple iTunes 9.x.
    I don't need to know everything, I just need to know where to find it, when I need it.
