Imagine the Airline or car manufacturers had that many 'security' issues. We'd scream bloddy murder.
Win 8 is just out the door and it already begins to turn into Swiss Cheese; holes everywhere.

The update is for all Windows OS's currently supported. The question is, why did they bother posting this here. Since when do they make articles about past patches?

In addition to Windows 8, the fixes applies to other major Windows versions, including XP, Vista, Windows 7, in addition to Server 2003, 2008 and 2012.

@freggo
W8 is just 7 with a new UI, and they are very well-accomplished and secure OSes.. I get the feeling you just don't like Metro/App store..

when will they remove the restrictions for built-in admin account in win8? none of my gfwl pc games will run due to live not working under built-in admin account. i have no idea if it works in non-built-in admin account since i never use non-built-in admin account for my home pcs. borderlands 2 won't launch. no metro apps will run either. 🙁

we going backwards, microsoft with windows 8 by removing power users' freedom? 😛

hopefully, some hackers will figure out how to remove all the restrictions placed on the built-in admin account. i mean that's the whole point of being a power user and using the built-in admin account. we power users don't want any stinkin' restrictions.

AHA! Glad I'm using MS Office 2000 then!

My next upgrade will probably also be Libre Office. MS introduced the ribbon. I hate the ribbon. Besides, I have tried Libre and it is nice.

Look whos the author of this 'story'. Is it any surprise that non-worthwhile news is being reported as news to get a few hits.

Agree, Windows is a FED co-authored Swiss Cheese OS

When they didn't even had time to finish the notification centre, I wonder what else might be missing in Win8.
