Unit 42 Discovers 10 New Microsoft Vulnerabilities
Summary: Palo Alto Networks Unit 42 researchers discovered one new vulnerability addressed in Microsoft's June 2019 security update and nine more addressed in May 2019, all rated "Important" by MSRC. Palo Alto Networks says its Next-Generation Security Platform with a Threat Prevention Subscription protects against such zero-day vulnerabilities, and that Traps prevents weaponized exploits through multi-layered exploit prevention.
Bottom line: Ten Microsoft vulnerabilities rated Important, disclosed across two monthly patch cycles, are the kind of weaponized exploit material attackers use against enterprise, government, and service provider networks - and the vendor's own note points readers to SANS ISC for patching prioritization rather than supplying it.
