Microsoft SOFTWARE PATCHES

Microsoft’s Software Patches Tuesday updates for February 2020 address 99 vulnerabilities, including an Internet Explorer zero-day reportedly exploited by a threat group known as DarkHotel.

Microsoft disclosed the existence of the Internet Explorer zero-day on January 17, when it promised to release patches and provided a workaround. At the time, the company noted that it would likely only fix it with its February updates.

The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2020-0674, is caused by a memory corruption in the scripting engine used by Internet Explorer 9, 10, and 11. More precisely, the weakness exists in a library named jscript.dll, which provides compatibility with a deprecated version of the JScript scripting language.
