Security News > 2020 > September > Microsoft Patch Tuesday, Sept. 2020 Edition
Microsoft today released updates to remedy nearly 130 security vulnerabilities in its Windows operating system and supported software.
Todd Schell at Ivanti reminds us that Patch Tuesday isn't just about Windows updates: Google has shipped a critical update for its Chrome browser that resolves at least five security flaws that are rated high severity.
Once again, there are no security updates available today for Adobe's Flash Player, although the company did ship a non-security software update for the browser plugin.
The last time Flash got a security update was June 2020, which may suggest researchers and/or attackers have stopped looking for flaws in it.
Adobe says it will retire the plugin at the end of this year, and Microsoft has said it plans to completely remove the program from all Microsoft browsers via Windows Update by then.
