Microsoft released thirteen bulletins that cover twenty-six vulnerabilities. Five bulletins are rated critical, seven are rated important, and one is rated moderate. Eleven bulletins affect Microsoft Windows and the other two affect Microsoft Office. All Microsoft Window operating systems (2000 or newer) have at least one critical update this month. Microsoft Office's two updates are listed as important.
The security updates for these vulnerabilities are available for download at the Microsoft Update web site (https://update.microsoft.com/microsoftupdate/). Please note that systems joined to the LSU Active Directory automatically receive the critical updates when available. Other updates will have to be installed from Microsoft Update.
Remember to close all applications at the end of work day today, as security updates may require a restart of your machine.
