    If the vulnerability is "particularly serious" then how about identifying the software that's exploiting this 'vulnerability'? Stating that "we know it is being actively exploited" without identifying the malicious software is highly dubious and can't be taken seriously.

    All this does is prevent administrators and users from checking their networks and machines for that software, allowing it to continue exploiting their networks and machines while also preventing security companies from creating signatures for that malicious software.

    Considering all they've done is disclose the vulnerability without also disclosing the software that they "know" is actively exploiting the vulnerability makes "Google Disclosing Windows 10 vulnerabilities to protect users" nothing but a sad sick joke.
