    RDP risks discovered and "fixed"

    The articles explain how computers with RDP enabled are at risk of malicious code exploiting the systems. Microsoft stated that there is a fix for it but also expects an influx of exploits as well due to the publicity of the flaw.

    Thanks, I use RDP a lot so I will make sure they are all updated.
    Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."

    Here's an update, and it looks like the malware community is all about this exploit. As the new article explains there's a bounty for an exploit and a whispered exploit already in production.

    Going to microsoft.com for updates didn't help you? If you're a tech that should have been the first place to look for a patch that was publicly announced in the news.
