The June 2023 Office non-Security updates have been released Tuesday, June 6, 2023. They are not included in the DEFCON-4 approval for the May 2023 patches. Unless you have a specific need to install them, you should wait until Susan Bradley (Patch Lady) approves them and any problems have been reported.
