Executive Summaries

The following table summarizes the security bulletins for this month in order of severity.

For details on affected software, see the next section, Affected Software.

Bulletin ID Bulletin Title and Executive Summary Maximum Severity Rating\ and Vulnerability Impact Restart Requirement Known\ Issues Affected Software
MS15-124 Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer (3116180) \ This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Internet Explorer. The most severe of the vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user views a specially crafted webpage using Internet Explorer. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the current user. Customers whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights. Critical  \ Remote Code Execution Requires restart 3104002 Microsoft Windows,\ Internet Explorer
MS15-125 Cumulative Security Update for Microsoft Edge (3116184) \ This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Edge. The most severe of the vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user views a specially crafted webpage using Microsoft Edge. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the current user. Customers whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights. Critical  \ Remote Code Execution Requires restart --------- Microsoft Windows,\ Microsoft Edge
MS15-126 Cumulative Security Update for JScript and VBScript to Address Remote Code Execution (3116178) \ This security update resolves vulnerabilities in the VBScript scripting engine in Microsoft Windows. The more severe of the vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if an attacker hosts a specially crafted website that is designed to exploit the vulnerabilities through Internet Explorer (or leverages a compromised website or a website that accepts or hosts user-provided content or advertisements) and then convinces a user to view the website. An attacker could also embed an ActiveX control marked "safe for initialization" in an application or Microsoft Office document that uses the Internet Explorer rendering engine to direct the user to the specially crafted website. Critical  \ Remote Code Execution May require restart --------- Microsoft Windows
MS15-127 Security Update for Microsoft Windows DNS to Address Remote Code Execution (3100465) \ This security update resolves a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if an attacker sends specially crafted requests to a DNS server. Critical  \ Remote Code Execution Requires restart --------- Microsoft Windows
MS15-128 Security Update for Microsoft Graphics Component to Address Remote Code Execution (3104503) \ This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows, .NET Framework, Microsoft Office, Skype for Business, Microsoft Lync, and Silverlight. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted document or visits a webpage that contains specially crafted embedded fonts. Critical  \ Remote Code Execution Requires restart 3114351 Microsoft Windows,\ Microsoft .NET Framework,\ Microsoft Office,\ Skype for Business, Microsoft Lync,\ Silverlight
MS15-129 Security Update for Silverlight to Address Remote Code Execution (3106614) \ This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Silverlight. The most severe of the vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if Microsoft Silverlight incorrectly handles certain open and close requests that could result in read- and write-access violations. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker could host a website that contains a specially crafted Silverlight application and then convince a user to visit a compromised website. The attacker could also take advantage of websites containing specially crafted content, including those that accept or host user-provided content or advertisements. Critical  \ Remote Code Execution Does not require a restart --------- Microsoft Silverlight
MS15-130 Security Update for Microsoft Uniscribe to Address Remote Code Execution (3108670) \ This security update resolves a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted document or visits an untrusted webpage that contains specially crafted fonts. Critical  \ Remote Code Execution Requires restart --------- Microsoft Windows
MS15-131 Security Update for Microsoft Office to Address Remote Code Execution (3116111) \ This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office. The most severe of the vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted Microsoft Office file. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerabilities could run arbitrary code in the context of the current user. Customers whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights. Critical  \ Remote Code Execution May require restart --------- Microsoft Office
MS15-132 Security Update for Microsoft Windows to Address Remote Code Execution (3116162) \ This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if an attacker accesses a local system and runs a specially crafted application. Important  \ Remote Code Execution May require restart --------- Microsoft Windows
MS15-133 Security Update for Windows PGM to Address Elevation of Privilege (3116130) \ This security update resolves a vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker logs on to a target system and runs a specially crafted application that, by way of a race condition, results in references to memory locations that have already been freed. Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) must be installed and the Windows Pragmatic General Multicast (PGM) protocol specifically enabled for a system to be vulnerable. MSMQ is not present in default configurations and, if it is installed, the PGM protocol is available but disabled by default. Important  \ Elevation of Privilege Requires restart --------- Microsoft Windows
MS15-134 Security Update for Windows Media Center to Address Remote Code Execution (3108669) \ This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The more severe of the vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if Windows Media Center opens a specially crafted Media Center link (.mcl) file that references malicious code. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain the same user rights as the current user. Customers whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights. Important  \ Remote Code Execution May require restart --------- Microsoft Windows
MS15-135 Security Update for Windows Kernel-Mode Drivers to Address Elevation of Privilege (3119075) \ This security update resolves vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerabilities could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker logs on to a target system and runs a specially crafted application. Important  \ Elevation of Privilege Requires restart --------- Microsoft Windows

Detection and Deployment Tools and Guidance

Several resources are available to help administrators deploy security updates.

Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA) lets administrators scan local and remote systems for missing security updates and common security misconfigurations.

Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), Systems Management Server (SMS), and System Center Configuration Manager help administrators distribute security updates.

The Update Compatibility Evaluator components included with Application Compatibility Toolkit aid in streamlining the testing and validation of Windows updates against installed applications.

For information about these and other tools that are available, see Security Tools for IT Pros.
