Microsoft has released five security advisories for the month, all of
which are rated important - second on a four-tier scale devised by the
company - and affect various versions of Windows.
The advisories, released on Tuesday US time, included three patches
for holes in service pack 2 for Windows XP which was released in
August. One patch fixes a flaw in some versions of Windows which was
made public some weeks ago.
Earlier this month, Microsoft issued an out-of-schedule patch to fix a
critical flaw in Internet Explorer.
The flaws are in WordPad, the Dynamic Host Control Protocol
implementation in Windows NT 4.0, HyperTerminal, the Windows Kernel
and the Local Security Authority Subsystem Service and Windows
Internet Naming Service.
