Microsoft patches Excel, Office bugs
Microsoft on Tuesday released its monthly round of security patches, fixing a number of widely reported bugs in its Excel and Office products.
The July security updates include seven sets of patches. Four of the updates address bugs in the Windows operating system, while the other three fix problems in Office and Excel. More information on the updates can be found here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms06-jul.mspx.
All of the Office and Excel fixes, as well as two of the Windows updates, are rated as critical by Microsoft, meaning that an attacker could theoretically take advantage of the flaws to run unauthorized code on a victim's PC.
The two critical Windows updates are for users of the Windows Server 2003, Windows XP and Windows 2000 operating systems. They fix vulnerabilities in Windows' Server service and in its DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) Client service.
