It’s a light month for Microsoft patches, with only four bulletins , none of which are flagged as Critical. The updates fix vulnerabilities in Office, Windows, and Server software.
Patches for the Windows XP NDProxy vulnerability and Office on Vista are among those made available today.
A post on the ISC Diary blog over at SANS has a useful overview of the vulnerabilities associated with this month’s patches .
As usual, the MSRC blog has its own spin on this month’s patches.
About jrivett
Jeff Rivett has worked with and written about computers since the early 1980s. His first computer was an Apple II+, built by his father and heavily customized. Jeff's writing appeared in Computist Magazine in the 1980s, and he created and sold a game utility (Ultimaker 2, reviewed in the December 1983 Washington Apple Pi Journal ) to international markets during the same period. Proceeds from writing, software sales, and contract programming gigs paid his way through university, earning him a Bachelor of Science (Computer Science) degree at UWO . Jeff went on to work as a programmer, sysadmin, and manager in various industries. There's more on the About page , and on the Jeff Rivett Consulting site .
