Windows XP SP2 'flaw' report falls short

eWeek | at | by Mike

The misguided advisory from Heise Security sets unrealistic expectations for a new Windows security feature and then criticizes Microsoft for not meeting them.

When I first saw the advisory "Flaws in SP2 security features," written by Jürgen Schmidt of Heise Security, I just laughed and blew it off as a big nothing. Now, I agree that it illustrates limitations in one of the new security features of Windows XP Service Pack 2. But a flaw? That's a hard claim to make.
