SOFTWARE COBBLER Microsoft plans to send out a record batch of 14 security
updates next week to patch 34 vulnerabilities in Windows, Internet Explorer
(IE), Office and Silverlight.
Eight of the 14 software updates are ranked as critical while the remaining
six are marked as important.
The count of 34 individual patches equals the monthly record, which was first
set last October and repeated in June 2010. Since eight of these are called
critical that matches the previous record that the Vole set in October 2009.
It seems that the larger Microsoft updates are landing in even-numbered months
and the smaller ones in odd numbered months. Thus we have the impression that
patches are being sent out in numbers and on schedules that suit Microsoft's
spinners in its PR department rather than its developers or customers.
According to Microsoft's monthly advance notification
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms10-aug.mspx , the
company will deliver 10 updates for Windows, half of them critical and the
other five rated important. Two updates will patch one or more critical bugs in
IE and Silverlight, while another pair will fix bugs in Microsoft Office.
All versions of Windows are involved, with Windows XP Service Pack 3 (SP3)
being the oldest to get a fix. Windows XP is affected by all five Windows-only
critical updates, as well as by the critical Internet Exploder and Silverlight
fixes.
Windows 7 is not completely unscathed either. Two of the five critical Windows
updates apply to the Vole's newest operating system, as do the critical IE and
Silverlight patches. All up Windows 7 will receive at least 10 of the 14
planned updates. So much for being a superior operating system.
The Office updates are aimed at flaws in Word and Excel. Both updates also
apply to the Mac editions of Word and Excel, even though Mac OS X is supposedly
the most secure operating system in the world and never has a problem with
malware. µ
