Security News > 2022 > February > February 2022 Patch Tuesday forecast: A rough start for 2022
January 2022 Patch Tuesday was a rough one for Microsoft - and us.
In the week following Patch Tuesday, Microsoft was forced to pull and subsequently re-issue several updates for Windows Server 2012, 2019, and 2022, as well as Windows 10 and 11.
February 2022 Patch Tuesday forecast I suspect we will see fewer CVEs addressed but expect the usual releases from Microsoft.
Adobe released a security update for Acrobat and Reader last Patch Tuesday addressing 26 CVEs with 16 rated critical.
Chrome 98 Stable Channel Update from Google for Windows, macOS, and Linux was released on Tuesday.
Mozilla released January Patch Tuesday updates for Firefox, Firefox ESR, and Thunderbird so expect new security updates again next week.
