It has not been a great week for Microsoft, what with an angry hacker dropping two zero-day exploits on the same day the official Patch Tuesday vulnerability-fixing rollout went live. So, you might think that the news of no less than three Microsoft Windows 11 zero-day exploits being demonstrated by hackers on the same day is just a continuation of the bad security vibe. But you would be wrong; this is, in fact, good news. The exploits took place at the annual Pwn2Own elite hacking event in Berlin, and full details of the vulnerabilities underlying the exploits, along with the technical nature of the exploit code itself, will be handed over to Microsoft, which will then have 90 days to provide a fix before any details are made public.
