Every common browser released at least a security update each week for the last month, with Firefox maxing out sanity tests by releasing five (5) security updates in a mere ten (10) days. I warned about this years ago.
There were over 160 major hacks (some involving millions of users and thousands of organizations, one involving billions of users, Microsoft’s own security keys), and over 200 application updates this month. It’s a huge month, with about 4 GB of updates for most users.
Welcome back, Folks!
Today is Patch Tuesday for June, 2023.
This month brings critical security updates for all supported Apple products, the end of all non-LTS versions of Windows 10 other than v22H2 (if you aren’t sure whether you are using LTS, you aren’t), and new security updates for every browser every single week since last month. That’s on top of the 180+ major hacks, and over 220 application updates this month.
Prepare yourself, there will be about 4.5 GB of updates for most devices this month.
