As is its standard procedure, Microsoft did not release any further details about the flaws being fixed.

Aside from the patches, the company also plans to update its Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool. The update will be available via all methods except Software Update Services   (SUS).

Microsoft said it will also issue a variety of "non-security" but "high-priority" updates for Windows on Windows Update (WU), Software Update Services (SUS), Microsoft Update (MU) and Windows Server Update Services (WSUS).
