Microsoft's June Security Patch Release

As expected, Microsoft released six patches yesterday as part of the June 2007 Security Update release. What was not expected was the re-release of two earlier patches, MS07-012 (Microsoft MFC) and MS07-018 (Microsoft CMS). The re-release of these patches was to address some relatively minor issues that had been encountered since their original release, as well as to add support for extra OS versions.

Closely following the release of the patches has come a range of sample exploits that target the vulnerabilities patched by the Updates. At this stage there is not much sign of the '0-day' Wednesday that follows some Patch Tuesdays, but it is likely that there will be some previously unseen vulnerabilities that are released over the next few days.
