[HIGH] Six critical vulnerabilities included in August’s Microsoft security update
Microsoft disclosed 73 vulnerabilities across its suite of products and software Tuesday, including six that are considered “critical.”
One of the vulnerabilities, which Microsoft considers to be only of "moderate" severity, has been actively exploited in the wild. The company has had to address many zero-day vulnerabilities in its monthly security updates this year, including four last month and one in May. Microsoft also released an advisory detailing changes to its defense-in-depth model to defend against tactics adversaries are currently using in the wild.
Outside of the six critical issues, two are considered to be of “moderate” severity, while the remainder are listed as “important.”
