This affects all supported versions of Windows 11 and Windows 10 and is tracked under CVE-2023-24932.
In the case of Windows 11, the KB5026372 cumulative update introduces no less than 20 changes that improve the user experience as well as fixes for 38 security vulnerabilities and three zero-days affecting various Microsoft products.Īt the same time, the Redmond company has released an optional security update addressing a vulnerability in Secure Boot that has been exploited in the wild through the BlackLotus UEFI malware, affecting even up-to-date Windows systems. Microsoft's latest Patch Tuesday updates are out for Windows 11 and Windows 10 with several fixes for two operating systems. The fix will require some manual steps for now, but will be applied automatically on all supported Windows systems starting next year. Normally, this kind of issue would be patched via monthly servicing updates but the Redmond company has chosen a phased approach to reduce the risk of you or your organization ending up with devices that won't boot.
Why it matters: Microsoft has issued guidance for fixing a serious Secure Boot vulnerability that affects all Windows systems and is actively being exploited in the wild.
