As has been customary over the last few years in Windows, we arrive at the monthly update Tuesday where the latest vulnerabilities detected in the system are corrected. These correspond to the month of November 2024 and we recommend you update as soon as possible.
This move, by the software giant, guarantees that we work with a protected computer at all times. And Microsoft sends us these updates monthly in order to solve the most recent security flaws that have been detected in recent weeks. For example, and to give you a better idea of the importance of all this, four very serious bugs are currently being corrected in the operating system that you use daily.
If we focus on the most recent version of the software, in this case the updates arrive for versions 22H2, 23H2 and 24H2 of Windows 11. Likewise, those who work with Windows 10 in its 22H2 version should also update and install this new release .
Fixes for Windows November 2024 patches
Below we are going to detail the vulnerabilities, more or less important, that have been detected over the last few weeks in the aforementioned versions of Windows. In addition, solutions are also included here for other products of the firm such as the web browser, Edge, which many of you use regularly.
- Windows 10 version 22H2. Corrected 28 vulnerabilities considered important.
- Windows 11 version 22H2. A total of 31 vulnerabilities are resolved, 1 critical and 30 important.
- Windows 11 version 23H2. Here we find 31 security flaws, 1 critical and 30 important.
- Windows 11 version 24H2. Another 30 vulnerabilities recently detected, 1 critical and 29 classified as important.
At this point we will tell you that the vulnerabilities classified as critical in the different versions of Windows mentioned are all the same. Specifically, this is a permission elevation security flaw in Microsoft Windows VMSwitch that potentially allows attackers to execute remote code. This vulnerability has been classified as CVE-2024-43625.
In turn, in Windows 11 we find the launch of a new setting to deactivate notifications from certain applications. And at the same time the deployment of the firm’s new Copilot AI key mapping begins.
How to install the new patches
As a general rule, and in most cases we will have the opportunity to update the operating system through its integrated function, we refer to the Windows Update tool. You can find this functionality in the configuration application that you can open using the Win + I key combination.
In the event that we have some type of problem with automatic operating system updates, we can always download these patches directly from the Microsoft catalog manually. Below we leave you the corresponding links so that you can carry out this process yourself and install the most recent updates that we have mentioned.
