Microsoft Windows SMB Tree Connect Response denial of service vulnerability
Apparently MS has been sitting on this since December but will patch on Feb 14th. Windows 7 is NOT affected.
“Microsoft designed the Windows 10 operating system to be the most secure version of the Windows operating system to date.”
My Galaxy S7
Supposedly the Samsung flagship phone.
Security patch level October 1, 2016 (I’m on Verizon).
Currently running Android Marshmellow (6.0.1).
Android Nougat final released AUGUST 22nd, 2016. Still not available for the S7.
And they wonder why people are switching to iPhones and hackers make fun of Android security.

Blame the Verizon for lack of updates. Samsung cannot release updates until they have green light from service provider. I have UK/EU Version and I received android security updates almost every month. 2 weeks ago I received Nougat updates.
