## Microsoft Patch Tuesday — Jan. 2020: Vulnerability disclosures and Snort coverage
By Jon Munshaw. Updated January 15th: Added an Advanced Custom Detection (ACD) signature for AMP that can be used to detect exploitation of CVE-2020-0601 by spoofing certificates masquerading as a Microsoft ECC Code Signing Certificate Authority.
Microsoft released its monthly security update today, disclosing vulnerabilities across many of its products and releasing corresponding updates. This month's Patch Tuesday covers 49 vulnerabilities, eight of which are considered critical.
This month's security update is particularly important for its disclosure of two vulnerabilities related to a core cryptographic component in all versions of Windows. CVE-2020-0601 could allow an attacker to use cryptography
