TL;DR | Go Straight to the March 2020 Patch Tuesday Audit Report.

The March 2020 Patch Tuesday updates from Microsoft have arrived. Microsoft released fixes for 115 CVE-numbered security vulnerabilities, 26 of which are classified as critical vulnerabilities. The good news is that none of them under active attack.

The Patch Tuesday of March 2020 is one of the biggest in Microsoft’s history, as the tech giant released fixes for 115 security flaws. Unlike the February 2020 Patch Tuesday madness which included Internet Explorer (IE) zero-day patches, none of the vulnerabilities are listed as being under active attack at the time of release.

One particular RCE hole worth mentioning lies within SMBv3. „An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could gain the ability to execute code on the target SMB Server or SMB Client,“ says Microsoft. There is no fix available in the Patch Tuesday March 2020 update other than to disable SMBv3 compression for servers.

Among the other critical alerts is CVE-2020-0852, a remote code execution flaw in Word. This Microsoft Word Remote Code Execution vulnerability could be exploited through the preview pane in Outlook, making it a more interesting target for threat actors.
