This month's edition of Microsoft's Patch Tuesday include seven bulletins that fix a total of eleven security vulnerabilities. Of the seven bulletins, five are marked as critical and two as important.

The new Windows 8 operating system receives three bulletins; one for a critical Internet Explorer 10 bug, as well as one critical and one important update for a bug that may allow remote code execution. The ARM-based Windows RT also receives two updates; basically the same two critical bulletins as Windows 8 minus the important update.
