Microsoft pushes fixes for two bugs in light Patch Tuesday
IT administrators were treated to a light security update from Microsoft on Tuesday when the software giant pushed out two patches for previously unknown issues, but remained working on a fix for a zero-day SharePoint vulnerability.
Each of this month's patches addresses one "critical" vulnerability, but neither of the patches were delivered with much urgency from Microsoft. The company said chances of exploitation were low.
Bulletin MS10-030 addresses a single flaw affecting Outlook Express, Windows Mail and Windows Live Mail. The vulnerability is rated critical in Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, Server 2008 and Vista, while Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 carry "important" ratings if a mail client is installed.
