Microsoft’s Patch Tuesday: Zero-Day Fixes and the Race Against Hackers
Microsoft has released fixes for over 70 vulnerabilities, including five actively exploited zero-days. While many think zero-day vulnerabilities are just an unlucky number, they are serious issues. Patch now, or you might find your computer starring in a hacker’s next reality show!
Hot Take:
Well, it looks like Microsoft has been handing out zero-day vulnerabilities like Oprah hands out cars. “You get a zero-day! You get a zero-day! Everybody gets a zero-day!” But in all seriousness, it’s Patch Tuesday, folks—time to cozy up with a warm cup of coffee and a firewall upgrade. Let’s just hope those ransomware folks don’t get too cozy before we do.
Key Points:
- Microsoft released fixes for over 70 vulnerabilities, including five actively exploited zero-days.
- Five zero-days involve elevation of privilege and remote code execution vulnerabilities.
- Patching is urgent; exploitation can occur within five days of disclosure.
- Two additional zero-days, CVE-2025-32702 and CVE-2025-26685, are publicly disclosed but not yet exploited.
- SAP also patched zero-day vulnerabilities affecting NetWeaver customers.
