Microsoft patched 15 vulnerabilities at a time
On June 12, the software giant released four "critical" patches to block 15 security holes in Windows, IE and other programs. .
This series of patches has been labeled with the highest level of Microsoft warning, because it prevents hackers from taking control of the remote computer in a situation where users are unaware.
Of these, there are 3 patches to protect Windows users from accidentally visiting a Web site that contains malicious code, or click on an email attachment sent by Windows Mail or Outlook.
The fourth patch is intended to prevent hackers from sneakily installing malicious programs on the computer, thereby quitting the opportunity to access their remote computers.
Vista stuck
The irony is that there are two serious patches this time designed to "patch" back to Vista, the operating system that Microsoft once advertised as " unprecedented security ".
Vista was officially released from the end of January, but in April, a dangerous vulnerability was discovered in the operating system.
Analysts named it the Mouse Cursor Error, and its severity was enough to cause Microsoft to periodically release a monthly security bulletin to release an "emergency patch."
In addition to the serious vulnerabilities mentioned above, Microsoft also introduced a patch for the Visio program, which is used to create graphs in Windows.
Another vulnerability is also in the operating system that allows strangers to hack into unauthorized computers to steal passwords and user information.
In addition, Microsoft has released seven high-priority updates in this month's security bulletin, including an update for the tool to remove malware from the PC.
