Microsoft yanks buggy Windows patches KB 4052233, 4052234, 4052235
Those are the “Patch Thursday” fixes I talked about last week. Microsoft blew it, and now they’re covering their tracks by not only pulling the patches in the Catalog, but also obliterating the KB articles.

MS fixes “external database” bug with patches that have even more bugs — KB 4052234, KB 4052235, KB 4052233, KB 4052232, KB 4052231
They’re all bad patches, and I expect Microsoft will yank them from the Catalog at any moment.
