Greetings,
The week was relatively quiet but it also warns of busy times ahead:
- Adobe released updates for Acrobat & Reader a week earlier than initially
announced. [1]
- RedHat was the first vendor to quickly follow these with an update to
their acroread package. [2]
- In a surprising move Microsoft has provided a very early pre-notification
of next week's patch
day. A total of sixteen (16) different patches being put forward covering
Internet Explorer,
the various Microsoft operating systems and Microsoft Office. [3]
Because of the very large amount and spread of the upcoming Microsoft
patches we are recommending
organisations have a well organised patch plan in place to offset any issues
that may arise.
With that we leave you to enjoy your weekend!
- Daniel
