Microsoft has just released a patch which fixes the bug that is related to animated cursors in their Windows operating systems. The patch also fixes six other flaws in Windows.

There is no estimate on how many people were affected about the animated cursor flaw situation.

The other flaws/vulnerabilities that were fixed are:
-GDI Local Elevation of Privilege
-WMF Denial of Service
-EMF Elevation of Privilege
-GDI Invalid Windows Size Elevation of Privilege
-GDI Incorrect Parameter Elevation of Privilege
-Font Rasterizer Local Elevation of Privilege

Even though Microsoft has released an “out-of-cycle” patch, users can expect that they will release more patches next week which is part of their normal schedule.
