Microsoft Patch Tuesday, November 2025 Edition

According to SANS Technology Institute, Microsoft Patch Tuesday for November 2025 fixes more than 60 vulnerabilities across Windows and related software, including at least one zero-day being exploited.

The update slate covers Windows OS, Office, SharePoint, SQL Server, Visual Studio, GitHub Copilot, and Azure Monitor Agent, with the zero-day CVE-2025-62215 described as a memory‑corruption bug deep inside Windows, though it is rated important rather than critical because exploitation requires prior access to the target device.

Among other fixes highlighted are CVE-2025-60274, a critical flaw in the GDI+ library, and CVE-2025-62199 in Office that can lead to remote code execution; officials emphasised the high risk given GDI+’s ubiquity. The piece also notes Windows 10 users can access an extra year of security updates if they register for the extended program, referencing KB5071959 and KB5068781 as the latest related patches and updates.

Commentators cited include Johannes Ullrich of the SANS Technology Institute, Ben McCarthy of Immersive, and Alex Vovk of Action1, who described the Office flaw as high priority due to its low complexity and ease of exploitation.
