post<\/a> on its site that hackers can take control of the computer if they succeed in their attempt.<\/p>\n\u201cAn attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code with system privileges,\u201d Microsoft said in an online message about a patch released late on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u201cAn attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.\u201d<\/p>\n
Microsoft called on users to install this patch immediately, as all versions of the Windows system are at risk, but not all of them have the appropriate security update yet.<\/p>\n
A number of information security experts pointed out that hackers had already been able to use the mentioned flaw associated with the printer software.<\/p>\n

The company’s market capitalization was about $2.1 trillion at closing Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Last month, Microsoft joined Apple in the giants’ club, which includes companies with a market capitalization over $2 trillion.<\/p>\n
