US govt orders federal agencies to patch dangerous Zerologon bug by Monday
The Department of Homeland Security's cybersecurity division has ordered federal civilian agencies to install a security patch for Windows Servers, citing "unacceptable risk" posed by the vulnerability to federal networks.

The target of the DHS's latest emergency directive is CVE-2020-1472, a vulnerability also known as Zerologon.
