Adobe, Microsoft Push Reader, Windows Fixes
Summary: Adobe issued updates fixing 17 flaws in Acrobat and PDF Reader, while Microsoft released nine update bundles addressing at least 22 security holes in Windows and associated software, six of them rated critical. The critical Microsoft fixes cover Internet Explorer, Edge, Office and Silverlight, and several older IE versions received their last security updates this month, including IE 11 on Windows 7 and 10, IE 8, 9 and 10, and IE 7 and 8.
Bottom line: Six of the nine Microsoft bundles fix flaws that can be exploited to break into vulnerable machines remotely without any user action, and the IE versions losing support this month include IE 11 on Windows 7 and 10 - so any fleet still running them stops receiving fixes for this class of hole.
