Microsoft's Patch Tuesday Details - [security]
05:12 PM EDT - Mar,10 2015 - post a comment

Five updates (four for Windows and one for Office) are rated Critical. The remaining nine are rated Important, all for Windows except for a lone Exchange Server patch. Two of the fixes are for vulnerabilities that have already been publicly disclosed. The good news for Microsoft's Security Response team is that they've cleared all open issues from the Google Project Zero list.

Here's what's in this month's supersize collection.

MS15-018 is a Cumulative Security Update that addresses an even dozen vulnerabilities and affects all supported versions of Internet Explorer. It includes the fix for a cross-site scripting vulnerability that was publicly disclosed prior to February's Patch Tuesday but didn't make last month's fixes . Another fix is in response to a memory corruption vulnerability that has also been publicly disclosed, although the official CVE page hasn't yet been updated with details.

MS15-019 repairs a scripting vulnerability (3040297) in some older Windows versions; it doesn't affect Windows 7 and later desktop versions or the equivalent server versions, Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2.

MS15-020 fixes a flaw in the way Microsoft Text Services handles objects in memory and how Microsoft Windows handles the loading of DLL files. MS15-021 addresses an issue with the Adobe Font Driver. Both vulnerabilities could theoretically allow remote code execution, although Microsoft's summaries say that possibility is unlikely.

MS15-022 applies to all supported Microsoft Office versions (2007, 2010, and 2013), as well as the server-based Office Web Apps and SharePoint Server products. It fixes three known vulnerabilities in Office document formats as well as multiple cross-site scripting issues for SharePoint Server. The worst outcome allows remote code execution.
