Microsoft Security Bulletins

For 'Patch Tuesday' in October, Microsoft released 10 new Security Bulletins: 1 Low, 2 Moderate, 1 Important and 6 rated as Critical. Many of the Critical Security Bulletins deal with a flaw in Microsoft Office products such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint. An exploit has already been circulating in the wild attacking the flaw in PowerPoint for a couple of weeks preceeding this release.
