On tap for Patch Tuesday: Three critical updates
Microsoft will issue six security updates on Tuesday for vulnerabilities in Office, Windows and the .Net framework for the running and building of applications. Three are labeled "critical," two are called "important" and one is what the company called "moderate" in importance. Users should make sure they are set to receive the updates as soon as possible, suggested Shane Coursen of Kaspersky Lab.

They are for vulnerabilities in Office, Windows and the .Net framework for building and running applications.
An updated Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool and several non-security updates dubbed "high priority" will also be released Tuesday, Microsoft said.
