Seriously?! More Vulnerabilities?

Right, listen up. Apparently, some clowns over at Microsoft are STILL letting shit slip through in their updates. This month’s patch Tuesday is a goddamn mess of 76 vulnerabilities. SEVENTY-SIX! Like they don’t have enough people getting paid to test this crap?

The worst offender? A critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) bug in the Windows Graphics Component. Yeah, you read that right. RCE. Meaning some script kiddie with a slightly functioning brain can probably own your system. And of course, it’s rated Critical. Because why *not* make everyone panic?

There’s also a bunch of Elevation of Privilege stuff – meaning if someone gets onto your machine (which they will, let’s be real), they can just…do whatever. Fantastic. And a whole heap of other issues across various Windows components. Honestly, it reads like a laundry list of incompetence.

They *say* there’s no evidence of active exploitation yet. But you know what that means? It’s only a matter of time before the bad guys figure it out. So patch your systems. Now. Before I have to personally come over and rewrite your entire infrastructure. Don’t bother asking me for help, though.

Oh, and they mention some Exchange Server stuff too. Because why would Microsoft let *that* be secure? Seriously, just…ugh.

Look, I once had to deal with a system admin who thought “rebooting” was an acceptable solution to *every* problem. Every. Single. Problem. He patched a critical vulnerability by…restarting the server. I swear, I almost walked out. This Microsoft situation? It’s just that level of infuriating multiplied by seventy-six.
