Those of you who've run into hiccups with Windows 11 24H2 should get some much-needed relief via this month's Patch Tuesday lineup. Released yesterday, the latest updates are designed to repair many, though not all, of the outstanding bugs.

The November 2024 Patch Tuesday updates for Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 23H2 make it possible to use the Copilot key on PCs that have one to open other apps.

The Patch Tuesday updates for November 2024 are here and you should get them as soon as possible otherwise your PC might be in danger.

Patch Tuesday Patch Tuesday has swung around again, and Microsoft has released fixes for 89 CVE-listed security flaws in its products – including two under active attack – and reissued three more.

Microsoft's November 2024 Patch Tuesday addressed 91 vulnerabilities. This includes four zero-days, two of which were actively exploited in attacks.

It’s been another busy Patch Tuesday for system administrators, with Microsoft releasing updates for nearly 100 vulnerabilities, four of which are classed as zero-days. Microsoft classifies a zero-day flaw as a CVE that has been publicly disclosed or actively exploited before a patch is available.

Microsoft has released November 2024 Patch Tuesday cumulative updates for Windows 10 version 21H2 and version 22H2 under KB5046613. There are new updates for older Windows 10 versions too.

The other two zero days being patched are CVE-2024-49040, a flaw in Exchange rated “important” that could allow an attacker to spoof the email address of a sender, and CVE-2024-49019, an elevation of privileges flaw in Active Directory (AD) which an attacker could use to gain the powers of a domain admin.

On Patch Tuesday, Windows systems will be updated with a flood of security fixes. In November, Windows patched four zero-day vulnerabilities, two of which have been exploited. Patch Tuesdays are a good time for admin teams to remind employees of the importance of keeping operating systems and applications up to date.
