Microsoft to release 2 Windows, Office Security Patches on Tuesday

[mandy]

After releasing a rash of more than a half-dozen security patches, Microsoft has announced just two patches are slated for next week.

Microsoft Office is scheduled to receive a patch on March 14 for what the software maker terms a "critical" flaw. The highest warning level used by Microsoft, critical security errors indicate an attacker could use the flaw to exploit a vulnerability capable of taking control of a system.

The second "important" patch addresses a problem in the Windows operating system. An important patch usually signals a vulnerability that could permit Denial-of-Service attacks.
