<p>Microsoft's September Patch Tuesday will hand admins hours of unwanted overtime, including applying an unusually high number of patches affecting Office plus three critical patches for SharePoint Server.</p><p>Of the 14 bulletins, the fact that half affect Office is probably the standout news. Only two of these seven are rated 'critical', but that does include one flaw (bulletin 2) that can be triggered simply by previewing an email in Outlook 2007 service pack 3 or all versions of Outlook 2010.</p><p>That's a warning shot. Most Office vulnerabilities require some form of user interaction but this one is open to exploit even when an email is not opened.</p><p>Elsewhere, SharePoint Server also takes a big hit, affected in bulletin 1 across all versions and Service Packs from Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2003 Service Pack 3 to Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013.</p><p><a href="http://news.idg.no/cw/art.cfm?id=287957A9-F59C-6821-F08D6A7E17134816">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://grahamcluley.com/2013/09/critical-security-patches/">Critical security patches from Microsoft are around the corner</a> (Graham Cluley Security News)</p><p><a href="http://www.computerworld.com/s/article/9242156/Microsoft_to_patch_dangerous_Outlook_hack_by_preview_bug_next_week?source=rss_keyword_gregg+keizer&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+computerworld%2Fs%2Ffeed%2Fkeyword%2FGreggKeizer+(Gregg+Keizer+articles+-+Computerworld)">Microsoft to patch dangerous Outlook hack-by-preview bug next week</a> (Computerworld (blog))</p><p><a href="http://www.networkworld.com/news/2013/090513-microsoft-patch-tuesday-273541.html">Microsoft Patch Tuesday aims at IE (again) and SharePoint</a> (Network World)</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?ncl=duKOKlKl8T4LUSM2IyP5Rta8yi_mM&ned=us">20 additional articles.</a></p>
