Seven fixes planned for Patch Tuesday
Microsoft announced today it plans to issue seven patches on Tuesday, including four that will repair "critical" vulnerabilities.

The fourth critical patch affects Windows.

Redmond also plans three "important" patches to sew up two holes in Windows and Office.

Last month, Microsoft delivered four fixes, one of its lighter Patch Tuesdays in recent months.

Microsoft next week also plans to release three, non-security updates for Microsoft Update and Windows Server Update Services and one, non-security updates for Windows Update.
