Microsoft Issues Six Patches (Four Critical)

Another Microsoft Patch Tuesday is here, and on the menu is six patches, four deemed critical. One is categorized important, and the last one moderate.

Two critical patches are for the Vista operating system (with the moderate one as well), and the one marked important fixes Visio, which is business software used to create technical drawings.

Also, Microsoft said it will distribute an updated version of their Malicious Software Removal Tool along with seven non-security updates for MS Update and Windows Server Update Services.

FYI, this is Microsoft's first advance notification giving such detailed notification, with each bulletin containing a patch's security rating, vulnerability impact, detection information and affected software. And if you're reading this, so are the bad guys, so if you don't have Microsoft's automatic update, go here and look for the Microsoft Update link.
