Microsofts October Patch Batch Fixes 62 Flaws Krebs on Security

Microsoft on Tuesday released software updates to fix at least 62 security vulnerabilities in Windows, Office and other software. Two of those flaws were publicly disclosed publicly before yesterdays patches were released, so attackers already have a head start. One of the flaws is a problem with a feature only present in Windows 10 known as the Windows Subsystem for Linux, which allows Windows 10 users to run unmodified Linux binary files. Another critical flaw (CVE-2017-11779) addresses a scary vulnerability in the domain name system (DNS) component of Windows 8.”]
