New year, new updates for security holes in Windows, Adobe, Android and more
2024-01-09 22:26

Patch Tuesday Microsoft rang in the New Year with a relatively calm Patch Tuesday: Just 49 Windows security updates including fixes for two critical-rated bugs, plus four high-severity Chrome flaws in Microsoft Edge.

"And while it's listed as exploitation less likely, because Hyper-V runs as the highest privileges in a computer, it is worth thinking about patching," Ben McCarthy, lead cyber security engineer at Immersive Labs told The Register.

SAP issued 12 new and updated patches, including three HotNews Notes and four High Priority Notes.

One of the new HotNews Notes, #3413475, addresses an escalation of privileges vulnerability in SAP Edge Integration Cell due to CVE-2023-49583 and CVE-2023-50422.

The bugs are tracked as CVE-2023-20193 and CVE-2023-20194 and only the latter has a patch.

Google's January Security Bulletin for Android addresses 59 CVEs, but none of these appear to have been found and exploited by criminals prior to the patches.
