Security News > 2022 > August > August 2022 Patch Tuesday forecast: Printers again?

Looking ahead to next week, we have a server end-of-life and still more updates that can impact printers.
There have been several updates to KB5005408 throughout the year to help administrators identify and manage these non-compliant printers.
Per Microsoft, effective August 9, "Smartcard-authenticating printers and scanners must be compliant with section 3.2.1 of the RFC 4556 specification required for CVE-2021-33764 after installing these updates or later on Active Directory domain controllers." This could be disruptive if you have not planned and updated your printers.
August 2022 Patch Tuesday forecast Expect a SharePoint server update to be included with the usual Office and Windows operating systems updates this month.
The anticipated major quarterly update for Adobe Acrobat and Reader came last Patch Tuesday.
The stable channel for Desktop was updated on Tuesday with 27 security fixes.
