Microsoft Pulls One Fix From 'Patch Tuesday' | |
|
||
| Time: 00:19 EST/05:19 GMT | News Source: Ent Mag | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||
|
Microsoft rolled out six security bulletins on its "Patch Tuesday" today, one fewer than expected. There are four "Critical" patches, which are all new fixes in the respect that they weren't previously known by the public. Further, instead of three, there are now just two patches that Redmond deemed "important." One important patch mentioned in the advance notice but dropped from the release would have dealt with potential spoofing attacks, in which disguised malicious agents could enter the system under false pretenses. Also, one of the "important" patches dealing with denial-of-service (DoS) risks in every OS version should really be labeled "important-plus." Meaning slightly less than critical, but far more important than indicated. | ||
