Sweet. I'm covered. Thanks guys.

 

Does this mean that Active Virus Shield and certain language localizations (those which are still not updated to the latest release) are vulnerable?

 

i have noticed a few people on the kaspersky forums that still use the 303 version should they be adviced to upgrade to 614 or 621 to protect themselfs from those vunrabilitys?

For those using Active Shield, I was told that one should remove an out-dated version and redownload a new copy within a few days, because this new copy should be void of the vulnerabilities. I hope that I was told correctly.

What happens to KAV clones with regards to these vulnerabilities?

 

Firecat, you just brought up a most interesting question, at it shall be fun to see what happens!

KAV english version 6.0.2.614
KAV portuguese version 6.0.0.303 not vista compatible and vulnerable

 

.303 probably shows some hotfixes

 

I have just confirmed that paid editions of ZoneAlarm 7.0 with Antivirus functionality based on Kaspersky engine should be free of these vulnerabilities as the OS Firewall and Firewall features in ZA should block them, if the vulnerabilities still exist with Kaspersky products.

Can't say about other KAV clones just yet though.
