Yes, Windows (ab)users it's your favorite time of the month once again (ducks). Microsoft today released updates to fix more than 50 security holes in its Windows operating systems and other software, including patches for a whopping six "zero-day" vulnerabilities that attackers are already exploiting in the wild.

@briankrebs and maybe new bugs
@briankrebs Those are spy holes.
@briankrebs if you ever had the (un)fortunate time of working closely with Microsoft product team they literally are dumbfounded by customers feedback about their products. It's even more shocking to other engineers and myself when we see their faces on calls with people trashing their cloud infrastructure and OS. Like they been living in their own bubble this entire time. Every organization I deal with is switching their whole env to Apple. The calculated costs are cheaper long term with hardware life cycle and stability requiring less IT resources.
Can't wait to see Microsoft only left popular in places like India. Even China and other countries are migrating to Linux.
@briankrebs This is what happens when we let PMs vibe code.
@briankrebs and they added how many crashe and bug ? xD
@briankrebs Any guesses what #Microsoft broke with some #slop-stained part of the patch set this time?
@briankrebs And how did it break in the meantime? That’s the real issue. LOL
@briankrebs
Yeah, multiple reboots, multiple countdowns (that seem to have no logical progression).
Said it before, I could install and do a basic configuration of a complete Linux OS in the same amount of time
@briankrebs thanks for keeping up with these!
@briankrebs changelog:
- fixed issues being exploited in the wild
- introduced new ones
- possible incorrect/incomplete patches meaning exploitation once patches are diffed…
@briankrebs And its all useless when the update fails to install on the first try, acts like it succeeded on the second try, only to fail to reboot, and finally after three reboots, the recovery kicks in and undoes it. Yay Microslop!
