This should probably go in Computers, but more people will read it here.

A zero-day exploit to WinAMP v5.12 (and probably before) has been found. Linky

WinAMP has released a new version (v5.13) to counter the vulnerability.

But wouldn't it be funny if the vulnerability, when exploited, used your login to post on forums with links that looked like fixes but were actually just exploiting everyone who clicked on them as well?


Yes. The answer is yes.

Does your exploit involve dressing up like a ghost and conning someone out of an old mansion?
