Microsoft has released information and patches of this month's patch day. It is promising that there is no patch for Windows in this month's patch day. The three bulletins that have been released fix security issues in Microsoft Office and Microsoft forefront United Access Gateway. One of the MS Offices bulletins has a maximum severity rating of critical, the other two bulletins an important rating. Lets take a closer look at the bulletins.
The security patches are as usually available via Windows Update, Microsoft Update and direct download. Office and Forefront users should patch the security vulnerabilities as soon as possible, everyone else can relax this month and wait for things to come. (via)

Thanks again Martin for this fairy handy overview from this months Microsoft patches.
But let’s not forget the 0-day exploit in IE that wasn’t patched. I don’t use IE but it’s disconcerting to know that a known critical flaw is unpatched.
