Microsoft plans to
release only one patch this Tuesday as part of its monthly cycle, the company
said in a security advisory on its website.
The patch fixes a hole in Windows which Microsoft rates as 'critical', the
most severe security ranking. The software maker also plans to release one
non-security update for the operating system.
Microsoft released six patches last month, one of
which was rated 'critical'. Worm authors crafted the Zotob
worm within days and wreaked havoc on Windows 2000 computers across the
internet.
The software giant's 'Patch Tuesday' traditionally coincides with the release
of an updated version of its
Malicious
Software Removal Tool.
Microsoft plans to host a
web
conference on the day after the patch releases at 11am PDT (7pm GMT) to
answer customer questions.
