Two are due to remote code execution vulnerabilities, while many of the important-rated patches are due to weaknesses that could allow an elevation of privilege. The first critical update was a cumulative update for Internet Explorer, resolving two reported vulnerabilities that would have allowed remote code execution. In order for an attacker to exploit this, a user would simply have to view a specially crafted webpage while using Internet Explorer. This update affects Internet Explorer 6 through 10. A full list of the affected softwares and their severity rating can be found on the bulletin. The other critical update is for another remote code execution vulnerability, this time involving Windows Remote Desktop Client. If a user views a specially crafted web page, the attacker has the opportunity to gain the same rights as the user. For both of these updates Microsoft reminded readers that setting up accounts with only as many user rights as necessary can help lower the effects to these types of attacks, as the attacker doesn\u2019t get as many freedoms as if everyone on the system had administrator level access. Rated \u2018important\u2019, there was a vulnerability..."}
