Microsoft Security Bulletins for June 2004

[Jerry Bryant [MSFT]]

June 8, 2004
Today Microsoft released the following Security Bulletins.

Note: www.microsoft.com/technet/security and www.microsoft.com/security are
authoritative in all matters concerning Microsoft Security Bulletins! ANY
e-mail, web board or newsgroup posting (including this one) should be
verified by visiting these sites for official information. Microsoft never
sends security or other updates as attachments. These updates must be
downloaded from the microsoft.com download center or Windows Update. See the
individual bulletins for details.

Because some malicious messages attempt to masquerade as official Microsoft
security notices, it is recommended that you physically type the URLs into
your web browser and not click on the hyperlinks provided.

Why was this posted to the technet page and not to
www.microsoft.com/security ??

 

[John O'Donnell]

it is

http://www.microsoft.com/security/bulletins/200406_crystal.mspx

I just saw it at a different location and wanted to pass the information
along.

I think you need to place a link to
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms04-jun.msp
web page in you main Security page.
This page make it easy to identiify which of the bulletins you care about
The path I had to follow to get to the bulletins is as follow
http://www.microsoft.com/security/default.msp
http://www.microsoft.com/security/bulletins/200406_windows.msp
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/current.asp
and finall
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms04-jun.msp
This is not an intuitive path....

Not all of the ms.com properties are updated
simultaneously. You apparently just looked
a little early.

Since this is a BCM group, it might also be appropriate to list a Security
Bulletin for BCM posted by MSFT on the same day, as well as an update that
may be needed to work with some SQL apps deploying BCM although I haven't
needed it yet for BCM:

Description of the Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2003 Security
Update: June 8, 2004
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=842496

and although not a security bulletin of interest for SQL and MSDE users--and
this may not be needed for BCM:


FAQ: How Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) Affects SQL Server and MSDE May 24,
2004
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/techinfo/administration/2000/security/winxpsp2faq.asp

SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3a
