YM Vulnerability Is Fixed

Yahoo has released an update for their Yahoo Messenger application after a report of flaws, which allow for system hijacking. Both flaws are boundary errors in two ActiveX controls in Yahoo Messenger's Webcam Upload and Webcam Viewer. The exploit code has been released in here, but Yahoo has fixed it and released 8.1.0.401 which can be downloaded here. If you use YM so often, you might want to update your IM client to the latest version in order to not to get hacked laughing
