We’ve already provided the direct download links for the cumulative updates released today for Windows 10, but now it’s time to talk about Critical Vulnerabilities and Exposures again. In terms of heft, this month’s release coincides with February releases from previous years, which are usually around 50 CVEs. Let’s dive right into it and see what vulnerabilities are completely gone from our lives, now that these patches are live.
There were no Critical CVEs to fix for February 2022
The silver lining for the month of February 2022, is the complete lack of Critical-rated patches. Out of the ones released today, 50 are rated as Important and one is rated as Moderate in severity. So, the 51 new patches that became available today address CVEs in:
Microsoft Windows and Windows Components Azure Data Explorer Kestrel Web Server Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) Windows Codecs Library Microsoft Dynamics Microsoft Dynamics GP Microsoft Office and Office Components Windows Hyper-V Server SQL Server Visual Studio Code Microsoft Teams
Some more good news is that none of the bugs that were addressed this month are listed as being under active exploit, except for one, which is listed as publicly known at the time of release. SPONSORED We know you’re curious and would like to explore each and every single one of the patches, so we are going to present them to you. These are all the CVEs addressed with this month’s Patch Tuesday release. Overall, this was a pretty light and secure month, compared to previous situations. The next Patch Tuesday batch of software will come on March 8 and we’re all curious to see what Microsoft comes up with until then. Let’s all hope that we won’t have to deal with critical problems, and that’s it will only be smooth sailing from now on. Was this article helpful to you?
