A worm is circulating that posts spam and malware to some blogs using old versions of WordPress. The organization recommends all users upgrade immediately.

A flaw that could attack Microsoft's Web server software is now being used to attack machines, the software company reports.

Malware posted by a Swiss researcher could be used to listen in on and record Internet calls on Windows machines that use voice over IP services.

The flaw, which affects certain versions of Microsoft Internet Information Services product, could allow an attacker to take over the server.
The software maker says it is looking into a potential vulnerability that could allow attackers to take over machines running older versions of Microsoft's Web server.
