Microsoft patches 20 bugs, including critical Word flaw

October 9th, 2012

Computerworld – Microsoft today patched 20 vulnerabilities in Word, Office, Windows, SharePoint Server, SQL Server and other products in its portfolio, including a critical bug in the company’s popular Word program and another already used to attack the company’s own online services.

Of Tuesday’s seven security updates, one was labeled “critical,” Microsoft’s most-severe threat ranking, while the others were pegged as “important,” the next-most-serious rating.

The critical update for Word affected all versions of Microsoft’s word processor on Windows, including Word 2003, 2007 and 2010; Word Viewer, the add-on that lets users who don’t own Word view and print documents; and Office Web Apps, the free online editions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote.  More
