Today, as part of Update Tuesday, we released 14 security updates – four rated Critical, nine rated Important, and two rated Moderate, to address 33 Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) in Microsoft Windows, Internet Explorer (IE), Office, .NET Framework, Internet Information Services (IIS), Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP), Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS), Input Method Editor (IME) (Japanese), and Kernel Mode Driver (KMD).
We encourage you to apply all of these updates, but for those who need to prioritize deployment planning, we recommend focusing on the Critical updates first. For additional insight on deployment priority, review the Security Research and Defense blog “Assessing risk for the November 2014 security updates.”
For more information about this month’s security updates, including the detailed view of the Exploit Index (XI) broken down by each CVE, visit the Microsoft Bulletin Summary webpage. If you are not familiar with how we calculate XI, a full description can be found here.
We re-released one security advisory this month:
In related security news, through Microsoft Update, we are expanding best-in-class encryption protections to older, supported versions of Windows and Windows Server. To learn more, visit the Microsoft Cyber Trust blog.
