It is unclear which flaw the critical patches will address, but there are at least two outstanding vulnerabilities being exploited in limited attacks.
One occurs when Windows does not properly handle specially crafted URIs or URLs passed to it when Internet Explorer 7 updates a Windows component. The other issue, announced this week, is an input validation vulnerability in the Macrovision digital rights management software.
The bulletin labeled important is expected to be the patch scrapped just prior to October's security update.
In addition to the patches, Microsoft will release three non-security, high-priority updates on Microsoft Update and Windows Server Update Services.
