PCWorld: Microsoft To Zap 8 Windows & Office Vulnerabilities
It’s not as big a load as last month’s record-breaker, but Microsoft continues to find it necessary to mass distribute security patches for its flagship products.
“Microsoft will ship two security updates on Tuesday to patch eight vulnerabilities in Windows and Office.
In its monthly advance notification, Microsoft spelled out next week’s two-update Patch Tuesday, a far cry from February’s massive roll-out of 13 security bulletins that fixed 26 flaws. (See ‘Top 10 Security Nightmares of the Decade.’)”
