Microsoft's latest Patch Tuesday brings 57 fixes, including six actively exploited zero-days. The updates address security vulnerabilities across Windows, Office, and other platforms.
Tyler Reguly, Fortra’s Associate Director of Security Research and Development, emphasized the importance of these updates, noting that most of the critical fixes are included in the monthly cumulative update, simplifying deployment.

Excerpt: Reguly said that fortunately, this limited the amount of patching needed to resolve the attention-grabbing flaws. “However,” he said, “they are big ticket items and with headlines likely to state, Microsoft patches six zero-day vulnerabilities, admins will likely have a lot of questions to answer about the state of their patching.”
