December Patch Tuesday

Microsoft has released updates for December 2024. The release looks pretty straight forward. Microsoft resolved 71 new CVEs affecting Windows OS, Office, Sharepoint, System Center Operations Monitor, Defender and a Microsoft AI project called Muzic. A Third-party update from Adobe rounds out the month, but the lineup is pretty light from a security perspective. Priority wise the top priority for December is the Windows OS update, which accounts for 58 CVEs including all 16 Critical and the one Known Exploited CVE.
