 Microsoft plans to release a dozen security bulletins June 13 to
provide fixes for a wide range of critical software vulnerabilities.The June batch of updates will include patches for a critical zero-day flaw in Microsoft Word and an Internet Explorer update that deals with the way the browser handles ActiveX controls.
A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed in an interview with eWEEK that the Microsoft Office update will offer a comprehensive fix for the Word flaw that has been exploited in targeted attacks emanating from China and Taiwan. In the absence of a patch, the Redmond, Wash., software maker recommends that customers run Word in safe mode as a temporary measure to thwart potential attacks.
