[HIGH] Microsoft Fixes 94 Security Issues in Massive June Update | Qualys
Today Microsoft released patches to fix 94 vulnerabilities out of which 27 fix remote code execution issues which can allow an attackers to remotely take control of victim machines. This is a massive update and fixes more than double the number of vulnerabilities as compared to the last two months.
Microsoft also released Security Advisory 4025685 which includes patches for older platforms due to heightened risk of exploitation. In my opinion this should be treated as a blue-print for future attacks and updates for EOL operating systems should be applied as soon as possible. Older platforms include Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Vista and Windows 8 and older issues like MS08-067, MS09-050, MS10-061, MS14-068, MS17-010, MS17-013 are patched.

## China’s Ministry of State Security Likely Influences National Network Vulnerability Publications
## Executive Summary
Earlier research based on the last two years of vulnerability reporting illustrated that China’s National Vulnerability Database of Information Security (CNNVD) was generally more aggressive in capturing up-to-date information for software vulnerabilities than its U.S. counterpart (NVD). In this research we examine exceptions to this general rule and discover a broader role for the Ministry of State Security (MSS) in vulnerability reporting than was previously known.
Recorded Future analysis has uncovered evidence of a formal vulnerability evaluation process at CNNVD in which High-threat CVEs are likely evaluated for their operational utility by the MSS before publica

ATT&CK
Exploitation of Remote Services
mitre_attack·CVSS 9.8
[CRITICAL] Exploitation of Remote Services
Exploitation of Remote Services
Adversaries may exploit remote services to gain unauthorized access to internal systems once inside of a network. Exploitation of a software vulnerability occurs when an adversary takes advantage of a programming error in a program, service, or within the operating system software or kernel itself to execute adversary-controlled code. A common goal for post-compromise exploitation of remote services is for lateral movement to enable access to a remote system.
An adversary may need to determine if the remote system is in a vulnerable state, which may be done through [Network Service Discovery](https://attack.mitre.org/techniques/T1046) or other Discovery methods looking for common, vulnerable software that may be deployed in the network, the lack of certain
