Microsoft will release three sets of security updates next Tuesday, fixing at least one critical bug in its Windows operating system.
The software vendor said Thursday that the most serious of these updates fixes a bug that could be used to install malicious software on a victim’s computer on any supported version of Windows. The other two Windows updates fix flaws that are not considered to be quite so dire, and one of these two important fixes does not affect Windows XP or Vista users.
