Microsoft discloses more than 130 vulnerabilities as part of July’s Patch Tuesday, four exploited in the wild

Summary: Microsoft's July Patch Tuesday disclosed more than 130 vulnerabilities, the most in a month since April 2022, including 10 rated critical and the rest rated important. Four important vulnerabilities were detected being exploited in the wild: CVE-2023-32046, CVE-2023-32049, CVE-2023-35311 and CVE-2023-36874, and Microsoft also issued an advisory on malicious use of Microsoft-signed drivers that Talos had reported after notifying Microsoft in February 2023.

Why it matters: The four flaws actually under attack are all rated only important, not critical, so a patch plan that prioritizes by severity rating alone would leave CVE-2023-36874 and the three prompt-bypass flaws exposed to active exploitation.
