    Recently (yesterday I think) an exploit was released for Windows which works from Windows 10 all the way back to Windows XP. The title of the article was something about "One bit to rule them all" because it only took one bit to trigger the exploit. It had something to do with running a program with scroll bars, and giving Windows invalid parameters for that scroll bar. This way, when you are a normal user on a computer, you could get system permissions (higher than admin!) by running their exploit. It wasn't quite changing a single bit as they claimed, you had to develop (or run) a program that exploited the bug, but scroll bars were the key. That's the joke here I think ;)
