Microsoft Maps Five Patches, Including Fix For Critical IE Bug
Microsoft offered some advance notification Thursday that it would unveil five security bulletins on Tuesday, April 11, among them a fix for the Internet Explorer vulnerability that has been exploited for weeks.
Four of the five will affect Windows, and at least one will be tagged “critical,” Microsoft’s highest-level warning. The fifth will resolve an issue in Microsoft Office that the Redmond, Wash. developer has judged as a “moderate” problem.
