Like greased lightnin’. Granted I don’t have overhead lifters or a four speed on the floor, nevertheless today was systematic . Nine bulletins requires that a lot of pieces come together. Hands down this was the smoothest release based on “pain” to bulletin ratio I can remember. Plus my trusty companion, vente almond mocha helped too.
This month has an interesting range of vulnerabilities affecting a broad spectrum of code. If you are new to the world of security this is a good set of bulletins to learn about different technologies and vulnerability types.
You can find all the details on the bulletins here:
