Patch Tuesday promises eight critical updates
04/04/2008 by swordfish.
Microsoft’s regular patch Tuesday update is set to bring five critical patches when it rolls around on 8 April.
Among the critical patches two will focus on Internet Explorer, two will affect Windows and one Microsoft Office, the company has revealed in its advance security bulletin. Each of the five will address flaws that could lead to remote code executions from malicious websites.
Patch Tuesday will also bring three “important” updates for Windows, addressing potential spoofing and elevation of user privileges.
The critical flaws affect all versions of Windows, including Vista, which could be seen as something of an embarrassment for the company just a month after it released its first Service Pack for the operating system.
