The monthly Patch Tuesday will provide fixes for vulnerabilities reported in Windows Office applications as well as Windows systems. The latest flaw identified, and for which a new patch will be released as well, is a bug that impacts Asian versions of the Excel application. While the current flaws require user interaction to advance maliciously, security experts note that they all demand attention.
