No Windows or IE updates on Patch Tuesday

Posted on Friday, November 05 2010 @ 15:47 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

This month's edition of Microsoft's Patch Tuesday will be pretty light, it will contain three bulletins that address a total of 11 vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office and Microsoft Forefront Unified Access Gateway. Windows or Internet Explorer will receive no updates, so it seems that the recently discovered IE bug won't be immediately patched.

This is the first patch Tuesday in a year that Microsoft hasn't had any updates for Windows. The recently discovered Internet Explorer vulnerability will go unpatched this month. The bug affects Internet Explorer 6, 7 and 8, but does not affect the recently released Internet Explorer 9 beta.
