Microsoft June Patch Tuesday Fixes 129 Vulnerabilities
As the biggest Patch Tuesday to date, Microsoft has issued 129 fixes for vulnerabilities in this month's massive update.
June Patch Tuesday Has Arrived with a Bang
Microsoft have released an astonishing 129 patches today, breaking all known records for the number of fixes released in a single month.
There are 11 Critical patches with the remaining 118 marked Important. Support for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 (including R2) was officially ended after January, but there are plenty of updates released this month for customers who have purchased an extension agreement.
Robert Brown, Director of Services for Syxsense said, “This brings the number of patches released this year to over 600, if July carries the same cadence we may reach the total number released for the entire of last year. In addition, there has been 10 Adobe updates released today making this deployment one of the largest we have ever seen. There could be close to 2.3GB of data being delivered to each device – you must prioritize your deployment to reduce the burden on your wide area networks and VPNs.
Patches of Interest
- CVE-2020-1281 – Windows OLE Remote Code Execution – This is the second highest vendor severity and CVSS score & impacts every Microsoft Operating System.
- CVE-2020-1238 & CVE-2020-1239 – Media Foundation Memory Corruption – This vulnerability impacts Windows 10 from feature update 1709 through 2004, plus Windows Server 2019 & has no countermeasure. We have seen other Media Foundation Memory vulnerabilities already this year and some have become zero day already.
- CVE-2020-1292 – OpenSSH is the open source ‘Secure Shell’ (SSH) which was added to Windows 10 and Windows 2019 OS, and is frequently used by Linux Admins and is the beginning of Microsoft cross-platform capability. This vulnerability exposes the “security settings” configuration which could be replaced with malicious code. Although this only impacts Microsoft and NOT Linux, this is still a patch to prioritize this month.
