This month's batch of security patches from Microsoft will be a record-breaking one: 16 bulletins addressing a whopping 49 security vulnerabilities. According to the company's advance notice, four of the 16 bulletins will be rated "critical," Microsoft's highest severity rating. Microsoft rates a critical vulnerability as one that could be exploited to propagate an Internet worm without user action.
The 49 vulnerabilities will mark the largest ever batch of patches issued by Microsoft. The previous record was 34 vulnerabilities patched in August this year.
The October patch batch will include fixes for security flaws in the Windows operating system, the Internet Explorer browser, Microsoft Office and the .NET Framework.
It is very likely that Microsoft will include patches for a pair of elevation of privilege vulnerabilities that were exploited during the mysterious Stuxnet worm attack.
The flaws in this month's release affect all version of Windows, including the newest Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008.

Microsoft To Patch Critical Office Flaw

By Paul Roberts
Created 11/04/2010 - 5:58pm

Microsoft will use its monthly patch to fix a critical security hole in versions of its Microsoft Office suit that could allow attackers to run malicious code on vulnerable systems.

The company announced details of its upcoming monthly patch for November on Thursday [1]. This months patch also included bulletins regarding upcoming fixes for two other security vulnerabilities: another in the Microsoft Office suite that was rated "important," and a third in the Forefront Unified Access Gateway that was also rated "important."

The relatively meager group of three bulletins is a welcome change for IT administrators still trying to dig out from October's monthly patch [2], which comprised 16 bulletins and fixes for 49 separate vulnerabilities.

The most serious vulnerability is rated "critical" for Microsoft Office 2007, Service Pack 2 and for 32 and 64 bit editions of Office 2010. It is rated "important" for Office 2003, Service Pack 3, Office XP, Service Pack 3 and Office for Mac 2011.

According to Microsoft's Bulletin Severity Rating System [3], "critical" vulnerabilities are described as those whose exploitation could allow the propagation of an Internet worm without user interaction, while "important" holes are those in which exploitation could result in the compromise of the confidentiality, integrity or availability of users' data or processing resources.

A second Office vulnerability is rated "important" and effects PowerPoint 2002 Service Pack 3 and PowerPoint 2003 Service Pack 3.

The third bulletin affects Microsoft's Forefront Unified Access Gateway 2010 Updates 1 and 2 and is rated important.

Microsoft will release its monthly patch update on Tuesday November 9, 2010.

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS10-001 - Critical

Vulnerability in the Embedded OpenType Font Engine Could Allow Remote Code Execution (972270)

Published: Tuesday, January 12, 2010 | Updated: Version: 1.1
General Information

Executive Summary

This security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user viewed content rendered in a specially crafted Embedded OpenType (EOT) font in client applications that can render EOT fonts, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Microsoft Office PowerPoint, or Microsoft Office Word. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs, view, change, or delete data, or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
This security update is rated Critical for Microsoft Windows 2000, and is rated Low for Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2. For more information, see the subsection, Affected and Non-Affected Software, in this section.
The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting the way that the Embedded OpenType Font Engine decompresses specially crafted files and content containing embedded fonts. For more information about the vulnerability, see the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) subsection for the specific vulnerability entry under the next section, Vulnerability Information.
Recommendation. The majority of customers have automatic updating enabled and will not need to take any action because this security update will be downloaded and installed automatically. Customers who have not enabled automatic updating need to check for updates and install this update manually. For information about specific configuration options in automatic updating, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 294871.
For administrators and enterprise installations, or end users who want to install this security update manually, Microsoft recommends that customers apply the update immediately using update management software, or by checking for updates using the Microsoft Update service.
See also the section, Detection and Deployment Tools and Guidance, later in this bulletin.
Known Issues. Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 972270 documents the currently known issues that customers may experience when installing this security update. The article also documents recommended solutions for these issues.
Affected and Non-Affected Software

The following software have been tested to determine which versions or editions are affected. Other versions or editions are either past their support life cycle or are not affected. To determine the support life cycle for your software version or edition, visit Microsoft Support Lifecycle.
