Quoting the blog: An internal email from the network security administration has been quoted as saying, âThis is what happens when SUS [software update service] admins donât auto-approveâ, suggesting someone managing the network updates hadnât patched the exploitable computers with the appropriate fix, leading to this issue. Not updating *any* system leads it to be insecure, however I can perfectly understand why the SUS Admins didn't auto-approve - but not why they weren't on top of the updates in the first place.
