September Patch Tuesday delivers critical updates to IE and Adobe Flash



Microsoft traditionally has a large patch release for September. This September's Patch Tuesday is no exception with 14 updates, seven rated as critical, seven rated as important, altogether resolving a total of 50 reported vulnerabilities. Unlike last month, September brings a zero-day vulnerability with the update MS16-104. Unfortunately, this patch to IE also includes a publicly reported security issue. So this month we have a number of Microsoft updates on the "Patch Now" list including: MS16-104, MS16-115, MS16-116 and MS16-117. And the update to the Windows kernel with MS16-111 may make some administrators pause for a little more testing due to the core system files updated.
