Microsoft released patches for 61 vulnerabilities. In addition, we got two advisories. One for the usual update for Flash, and one for a Windows DoS vulnerability.

The DoS advisory covers "FragmentSmack", an issue first released mid-August. For Unix systems, the recommendation was to reduce the buffer space used for fragments. Microsoft is going a step further: It suggests to drop all out of order fragements. This step appears to be a bit "drastic" in that it can lead to valid data being dropped and something to consider if you tune your IDS accordingly.

This update also patches the "ALPC" privilege escalation flaw, which has already been exploited by malware. 

3 additional already disclosed vulnerabilities are patched (see table below for details)

See the Patch Tuesday Dashboard for more details.

Enter comment here... a fake TeamViewer page, and that page led to a different type of malware. This week's infection involved a downloaded JavaScript (.js) file that led to Microsoft Installer packages (.msi files) containing other script that used free or open source programs.
distribute malware. Even if the URL listed on the ad shows a legitimate website, subsequent ad traffic can easily lead to a fake page. Different types of malware are distributed in this manner. I've seen IcedID (Bokbot), Gozi/ISFB, and various information stealers distributed through fake software websites that were provided through Google ad traffic. I submitted malicious files from this example to VirusTotal and found a low rate of detection, with some files not showing as malware at all. Additionally, domains associated with this infection frequently change. That might make it hard to detect.
