Microsoft Patch Tuesday for August 2009: nine bulletins

JMH · Aug 6, 2009

According to the Microsoft Security Response Center, Microsoft will issue nine Security Bulletins on Tuesday, and it will host a webcast to address customer questions on the bulletin the following day (August 12 at 11:00am PST, if you're interested). Five of the vulnerabilities are rated "Critical," and the other four are marked as "Important." All of the Critical vulnerabilities earned their rating through a remote code execution impact, meaning a hacker could potentially gain control of an infected machine. At least seven of the nine patches will require a restart.
