Security firm Ivanti notes that the patch for the IE zero day flaw was released prior to today for Windows 10 through cumulative updates, but that an IE rollup for any pre-Windows 10 systems needs to be manually downloaded and installed.
Apparently, the fix available through this month’s roundup addresses those issues. That out-of-band security update for IE caused printer errors for many Microsoft users whose computers applied the emergency update early on, according to Windows update expert Woody Leonhard. Included in this month’s roundup is something Microsoft actually first started shipping in the third week of September, when it released an emergency update to fix a critical Internet Explorer zero-day flaw ( CVE-2019-1367) that was being exploited in the wild. Microsoft labels flaws critical when they could be exploited by miscreants or malware to seize control over a vulnerable system without any help from the user.Īlso, Adobe has kindly granted us another month’s respite from patching security holes in its Flash Player browser plugin. Happily, only about 15 percent of the bugs patched this week earned Microsoft’s most dire “critical” rating. By most accounts, it’s a relatively light patch batch this month.
On Tuesday Microsoft issued software updates to fix almost five dozen security problems in Windows and software designed to run on top of it.
