This month’s Microsoft patch update tackles a total of 111 vulnerabilities, with 17 identified as critical. Out of these, one vulnerability was revealed before the patch was launched, categorizing it as a zero-day. Although none of the vulnerabilities have been used maliciously in the wild, the critical ones present considerable risks, such as remote code execution and privilege escalation. Users are highly encouraged to implement the updates swiftly to protect their systems from possible threats.
