Microsoft releases 6 security updates


Another Patch Tuesday and Microsoft comes out with security updates for ActiveX, DirectX, ISA Server 2006, Office Publisher, Virtual PC, Virtual Server and Windows. Two of the issues are being actively exploited on the Internet and four of the issues are client-side vulnerabilities, which means the exploit can only occur if a user visits an evil website or opens a malformed document.

Eric Schultze, CTO, Shavlik Technologies comments:

Today's release is important because patches were released for two recent 0-day attacks - a QuickTime file parsing vulnerability and the recently announced Directshow vulnerability. Both vulnerabilities are reported as being actively exploited on the Internet. While Microsoft has announced workarounds and/or provided Fixit tools for each of these issues, today's patches will be welcomed by network administrators who have been tasked with remediating these issues.
