It’s that time of the month again Windows users, Microsoft patch Tuesday.
The updates for today range in security severity from “Important” to a highest Maximum Severity rating of Critical.
I highly recommend that you be sure to grab these updates for your Windows machine to keep you running smooth and secure.
Microsoft is planning to release the following security updates:
- Five Microsoft Security Bulletins affecting Microsoft Windows.
- Two Microsoft Security Bulletins affecting Microsoft Office.
- One Microsoft Security Bulletin affecting Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Visual Studio.
- One Microsoft Security Bulletin affecting Microsoft Windows and Microsoft Office.
- One Microsoft Security Bulletin affecting Step-by-Step Interactive Training.
- One Microsoft Security Bulletin affecting Microsoft Data Access Components.
- One Microsoft Security Bulletin affecting Windows Live OneCare, Microsoft Antigen, Microsoft Windows Defender, Microsoft Forefront Security for Exchange Server and Microsoft Forefront Security for SharePoint.
Keep in mind that some of these updates may require a restart of your machine. Yay Microsoft Windows.
To wrap up your update Tuesday Windows patching, Microsoft plans on releasing a couple Non-security High Priority updates on MU, WU, WSUS and SUS:
- Microsoft will release two NON-SECURITY High-Priority Updates for Windows on Windows Update (WU) and Software Update Services (SUS).
- Microsoft will release eight NON-SECURITY High-Priority Updates on Microsoft Update (MU) and Windows Server Update Services (WSUS).
Although Microsoft doesn’t anticipate any changes, the number of bulletins, products affected, restart information and severities are subject to change until released this morning. Your mileage may very.
Happy updating!
