Microsoft July 2009 Out-of-Band Releases

If you haven't noticed it, Microsoft will release two out-of-band patches tomorrow. Which usually means they have a good reason for doing this. Apply them ASAP.

From the MSRC blog:

We have just published our advance notification for an out-of-band security bulletin release, with a target of 10:00 AM Pacific Time next Tuesday, July 28, 2009.

While this release is to address a single, overall issue, in order to provide the broadest protections possible to customers, we’ll be releasing two separate security bulletins:

1. One Security Bulletin for Visual Studio

2. One Security Bulletin for Internet Explorer
