BLUF == Bottom Line up Front.
This is my first Patch Tuesday article, so I want to introduce myself. I am a Senior Security Engineer that focuses in Vulnerability Management and Threat Intelligence. I have a Youtube channel regarding OSINT and Security (https://youtube.com/c/0x4rko).
Is there anything of concern in this Patch Tuesday?
EDIT: CVE-2022–21907 has the potential to become weaponized. Please monitor and patch.
