The buggy patch only affects Windows Servers, Windows 10 devices and applications in enterprise environments, according to Microsoft:

Microsoft is working on a fix for a bug in last week's patch for a bypass vulnerability in the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) security feature.

Microsoft has flagged the issue affecting systems that have installed the patch for the bug CVE-2020-17049, one of the 112 vulnerabilities addressed in the November 2020 Patch Tuesday update.

    And the whole is greater than the part : 17087 could be used to become privileged to enable the exploitation of 17049. A successful attack would result in a complete take over, or destruction, of an AD domain.

    Will it stop my mom calling every Saturday morning about her computer? Then it's not fixed.

      There are some very simple ways to stop that. They're just not generally deemed acceptable. Sledgehammer to phone, Sledgehammer to computer, either one would probably work just fine. Mom might not be terribly happy anymore, though.

    We don't need stories about dumb ass Windows bullshit. If you use Windows you are like a retarded 5 yr old. No offense to retarded 5 yr olds. They didn't choose their lot in life. Windows users do.
