Two further Windows patches have been labelled important, the second-highest ranking for seriousness, according to Microsoft in its usual pre-Patch Tuesday advisory. Although two serious and one critical patch in a month are not an ideal communication to receive from the company supplying the world's most widely used software platform, it is a marked improvement on previous months, where as many as a dozen critical and serious patches have been necessary. Last month, one of the vulnerabilities was so critical that an office of the US Department of Homeland Security felt compelled to issue an alert to users. As usual, Microsoft will post full details on the vulnerabilities on its site after the updates are released to users And as usual, users are encouraged to implement the updates as soon as possible to avoid fallout from zero day exploits. {moscomment} |
