Hello everyone, welcome to Patch Tuesday, the time of the tonth where patching is part of the echosystem.
As part of the news you’ll be reading, Microsoft will be deciding that they’ll temporarily change their mind on blocking scripts and other malicious content from running in word and other office documents. There really isn’t a good reason, except that Microsoft said they’ve gotten some negative reports on why this is a bad thing.
Microsoft made it impossible to find the unblock button on documents that were deemed safe by the sender. I think its time that Microsoft make a firm decision and stay with it.
Besides that, there are multiple zero-days that are in the wild and there are links to the CVE designations within Brian’s article.
For complete details on patch Tuesday, the decision not to disable macros and scripts from Office and more, please read Microsoft Patch Tuesday, July 2022 Edition which will have all of the details.
Thanks so much for reading, listening, and participating on our programs. Please make it a great day!
