A Patch Tuesday "Two-Fer" Secures Both Microsoft and Adobe Programs
Microsoft also rolled out these updates in June:
- The June 2009 version of the Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool (KB890830)
- The June 2009 update for the Windows Mail Junk email filter (KB905866)
- Cumulative updates for Windows Media Center for Windows Vista (KB967632) and Windows Media Center TV Pack for Windows Vista (KB966315)

Adobe was also busy sticking its fingers in the security dike this month, rolling out critical security update APSB09-07 with updates for Adobe Reader and Acrobat 9.x, 8.x, and 7.x. Vulnerabilities patched by the updates include stack overflow, integer overflow, memory corruption and heap overflow, all of which could be used to trigger arbitrary code execution.
Stay safe out there!
