Microsoft has released their list of security patches for July 2009. Fortunately the list is far smaller than June’s record-setting list.
Windows 2000 and Windows XP are the most affected with three critical problems. Two of those are subject to exploits that are in the wild on the Internet. These would need to be patched quickly. Windows Vista is affected by one critical update and there is an exploit in the wild for that one.
The only Office component affected this month is Publisher. The remaining patches are for Microsoft Server and Virtualization Software.
