Security News > 2024 > February > February 2024 Patch Tuesday forecast: Zero days are back and a new server too
Microsoft introduced the update process called 'flighting' for these preview builds, allowing automatic or manual in-place updates approximately every two weeks without needing a new install every time.
Google released the Stable Channel updates 120.0.6099.234 for Mac, 120.0.6099.224 for Linux, and 120.0.6099.224/225 to Windows back on January 16.
February 2024 Patch Tuesday forecast Microsoft should be back up to speed with a full set of new releases this month.
Expect all the OS, Office, SharePoint and Exchange server updates.
Apple released a wide range of OS updates on January 22, so it's unlikely another set of updates will follow so closely around Patch Tuesday.
Be on the lookout for the formal update to come out later this week or early for Patch Tuesday week.
