Microsoft Tuesday Coverage for November

Summary: Cisco Talos published its November 2008 Microsoft Tuesday coverage, describing a light month with two notable vulnerability sets: one in XML Core Services (MS08-069) and one in SMB (MS08-068). Talos released rules for attack coverage, including detection for attacks targeting a buffer overflow in Adobe Acrobat Reader (CVE-2008-2992).

What you should know: The SMB and XML Core Services flaws sit in services most networks expose by default, and the coverage extends to an Adobe Reader buffer overflow that Microsoft's patches do not address.
