June 2023 Patch Tuesday Arrives for Windows

June 14, 2023

In case you’ve been living under a rock these past few years, yesterday was the once a month Patch Tuesday where Microsoft releases updates. As reported by BleepingComputer, the June 2023 release includes fixes for 78 flaws and 38 RCE bugs. Six of the flaws are listed as critical. The following vulnerabilities are part of the released updates.

  • 17 Elevation of Privilege Vulnerabilities
  • 3 Security Feature Bypass Vulnerabilities
  • 32 Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities
  • 5 Information Disclosure Vulnerabilities
  • 10 Denial of Service Vulnerabilities
  • 10 Spoofing Vulnerabilities
  • 1 Edge – Chromium Vulnerabilities

The “good news” is that it does not fix any zero-day vulnerabilities or actively exploited bugs. That should lessen the rush to get the updates installed. Even so, best practice is to get the updates installed as soon as possible.
