April Patch Tuesday cometh
April 3, 2008 — 4:18pm ET | By Mehan Jayasuriya
Another month, another Microsoft Patch Tuesday. What's in store for us this month? Well, it looks like we'll be seeing eight patches total, five of which will be labeled as "critical". The critical updates will address code execution vulnerabilites in both Windows and Internet Explorer. Affected versions are as follows: Windows Vista, Windows XP, and Windows 2000, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008 and all versions of Internet Explorer. In addition to the critical fixes, the company will patch two "important" vulnerabilites relating to spoofing and unauthorized user privilege elevation attacks in Microsoft Office. More on the patches next week.
