Security News > 2022 > January > January 2022 Patch Tuesday forecast: Old is new again

Even though Apache released the zero-day fix for CVE-2021-44228, it takes a while for companies who use this library to update, test, and release a new version.

January 2022 Patch Tuesday forecast I mentioned Microsoft has been busy addressing several issues already this year, so we may see more than the 29 and 30 vulnerabilities addressed in Windows 11 and 10 respectively.

Updates for most Adobe products were released back on December 14th, so make sure you've included those in your update plan.

One of these vulnerabilities was rated Critical and 10 were High, so definitely update your systems this patch cycle.

Mozilla did not release their usual pre-Patch Tuesday updates for Firefox, Firefox ESR, and Thunderbird, so expect those security updates next week.

With the malicious code in the Atera product and the scramble to update Apache's Log4Shell vulnerability, this old advice is really new again!
