Published / by jeff / Leave a Comment

In what feels like perfect timing from Microsoft, it seems they had already released patches for some if not all of the exploits released these past few days by the file dump by the ShadowBrokers.

 

Code Name Solution
EternalBlue Addressed by MS17-010
EmeraldThread Addressed by MS10-061
EternalChampion Addressed by CVE-2017-0146 & CVE-2017-0147
“ErraticGopher” Addressed prior to the release of Windows Vista
EsikmoRoll Addressed by MS14-068
EternalRomance Addressed by MS17-010
EducatedScholar Addressed by MS09-050
EternalSynergy Addressed by MS17-010

This has been taken straight from the Microsoft Blog.

Regardless how this happens does not matter, it is just good to know that most if not all of these issues released are patched.

***On 17th April, we have a news article on the BBC that actually covers this story by Microsoft

It is good to see that we are getting better as an industry to fix and patch these exploits.
