Microsoft has confirmed that its Patch Tuesday release on 9 September will include fixes for four 'critical' remote code execution vulnerabilities.

Affected software includes Microsoft Office, Windows, Internet Explorer, .NET Framework, SQL Server and Visual Studio. Most of updates do not require a full restart of the PC.

Microsoft will host a webcast to address customer questions on these bulletins on 10 September.

In related news, VMware this week warned enterprises of vulnerabilities in its server and workstation products.

The affected software is VMware Workstation, VMware Player, VMware ACE, VMware Server, and VMware ESX.
