Friday night quick patching recap for business patchers:
Friday night quick patching recap for business patchers:
Windows Server 2016 SSU – has been recalled and been replaced with KB5001078. This fixes the issue where the cumulative update got stuck at 24%.
Source: Windows 10, version 1607 and Windows Server 2016 | Microsoft Docs
1909 received a replaced February release that fixes an issue with Wifi in the form of KB5001028

All .NET updates may trigger issues with applications and games
Source: Windows 10, version 1803 | Microsoft Docs
February updates enforced secure logon for the Zerologon issue. If you have Windows 7/Server 2008 even without ESUs these still connect to your domain. Windows server 2003 will probably fail. You will need to disable signing enforcement if you have any non compliant devices.
Monitoring script: Script to help in monitoring event IDs related to changes in Netlogon secure channel connections associated with CVE-2020-1472 (microsoft.com)
All of these issues will be discussed in detail in NEXT week’s patch watch. I’ll be doing a consumer patching overview this weekend in the newsletter and business patching in the Plus newsletter next week.
