Security Fixes for Microsoft Windows, Office
Summary: Microsoft released two updates to fix at least three security flaws in Windows and Office, one of which earned a critical rating and mainly concerns enterprises running Windows Server 2003 and 2008. The Office update fixes two vulnerabilities in PowerPoint affecting Office XP, Office 2003, Office 2007 and Office 2004 for Mac, while Office 2010 for Mac and Windows are not affected.
Why it matters: The critical patch targets Windows Server 2003 and 2008 still running in enterprise environments, and the PowerPoint flaws reach older Office versions that many organizations keep in service long after support ends.
