Zero-Day: Highly dangerous security vulnerability in Microsoft Windows
A new, highly dangerous security vulnerability in Microsoft Windows allows the execution of malicious code via a zero-day exploit. The vulnerability, discovered by ESET researchers, was published by Microsoft a few days ago and should have been closed by updates, provided they had been installed. Researchers at the European IT security vendor ESET have discovered an extremely dangerous security vulnerability (CVE-2025-24983) in older versions of Microsoft Windows. A vulnerability in the code allowed the execution of a zero-day exploit. Experts define this as malware that exploits unpatched security vulnerabilities. For a successful attack, the victim's computer had to already be infected with a backdoor.
