Microsoft just released 27 new security patches

Posted on July 16, 2018 at 17:35 CDT by woody • Comment in the Forums

The Update Catalog lists 27 patches that were released on July 16 – that’s today.

Right now, we have 151 security patches available for this month. This morning, the number stood at 129. If I take off my shoes, I think that means five patches (net) were pulled and not replaced.

All active versions of Windows – Win10 1803, 1709, 1703, Win7, Win8.1, Server 2008 R2, Server 2012 – have new updates.

KB 4018385, the buggy Office 2016 patch, was pulled and hasn’t been replaced.

This month’s patches have been an unmitigated mess. DON’T PATCH.

And I just moved us to MS-DEFCON 1.
