## April’s Patch Tuesday includes 150 vulnerabilities, 60 which could lead to remote code execution
In one of the largest Patch Tuesdays in years, Microsoft disclosed 150 vulnerabilities across its software and product portfolio this week, including more than 60 that could lead to remote code execution.
Though April’s monthly security update from Microsoft is the largest since at least the start of 2023, only three of the issues disclosed are considered “critical,” all of which are remote code execution vulnerabilities in Microsoft Defender for IoT.
Most of the remainder of the security issues are considered “important,” and only two are “moderate” severity.
The three critical vulnerabilities — CVE-2024-21322 , CVE-2024-21323 and CVE-2024-29053 — are all remote code execution vulnerabi
