Written by James Delahunty @ 12 Sep 2011 9:08

Microsoft preps five bulletins for Patch Tuesday Updates to be pushed out Tuesday, September 13, address Windows and Office flaws.
Microsoft does not rate any of the five bulletins as critical, which might appear to be a good thing on the surface, but the five "Important" bulletins address some serious vulnerabilities. One in particular patches an undisclosed remote code execution bug affecting Windows.

Another code execution flaw affects the Microsoft Office from 2003, to 2010.
