Microsoft focused on Windows with this month's big patch release, pushing out 63 updates affecting the operating system, Microsoft Office and the Visual Studio and .NET platforms. The release came amid reports of three publicly exploited vulnerabilities.
Though this month's Patch Tuesday update from Microsoft deals with more than 86 reported vulnerabilities, the testing and deployment profile for July should be easy to handle. Use your time wisely.
With 67 flaws addressed, six publicly-reported issues and one vulnerability already exploited, this month's updates pale in comparison to the challenges addressing the Log4j issue.
Microsoft's update for this month brings fixes for four zero-day vulnerabilities and 74 updates to the Windows ecosystem including a difficult-to-test kernel update and an Exchange Server update that requires some technical skill and due diligence.
