Microsoft is preparing to release a series of new security holes

Microsoft will release 12 new critical security patches to fix 57 security holes on all its software on Tuesday (February 12). This will be the largest patch in the past few months.

Accordingly, Microsoft will release 12 new separate patches to solve 57 security holes on its products including Windows OS, Internet Explorer, Windows Server, Microsoft Exchange and .Net Framework.

Of these 12 critical patches, one to patch the vulnerability allows hackers to execute malicious code remotely on an unprotected computer. The second patch is used to patch IE versions from 6-10, which means that browser versions on Windows 8 as well as Windows RT will be at high risk if not updated. .

The third patch is equally important when its object is Windows XP, Vista and Windows Server 2003. The fourth patch applies to Microsoft Exchange and the fifth patch for Windows XP.

The above 5 patches will be automatically updated on the computer when users turn on the Windows Update function. The remaining 7 patches are also considered important but users will have to install them manually.
