The rest of the versions, from Windows Server 2003 to Windows 10 also receive them. A sign that Microsoft is really concerned about the security problems we are seeing this year.

With this update, the American company seeks to cover three new exploits recently discovered by the NSA. In principle, according to the leaked information, these are exploits that affect Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003. Although from Microsoft they do not rule out risks for any version. Therefore they recommend at all times to have the latest version of the security patch installed. In addition, it also seeks to cover the other 96 previously discovered vulnerabilities.

So far all those vulnerabilities that the NSA has revealed have been remedied. The security patches released by Microsoft have served to solve these problems. And now with this new patch, 96 new potential vulnerabilities are fixed. It is likely that in the coming weeks new vulnerabilities will be revealed, because we are seeing how the security of computers is being constantly put at risk in recent weeks.
