Windows updates that are SHA-2 signed may not be offered for Symantec and Norton AV
Symantec identified the potential for a negative interaction that may occur after Windows Updates code signed with SHA-2 only certificates are installed on devices with Symantec or Norton antivirus programs installed. The software may not correctly identify files included in the update as code signed by Microsoft, putting the device at risk for a delayed or incomplete update.

Affected platforms:
  • Client: Windows 7 SP1
  • Server: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
Mitigation: To mitigate this issue, Symantec and Norton released updates to their anti-virus software. Symantec Endpoint Protection protected devices can safely apply this update and future updates. See the Symantec support article for additional detail. Norton Security and Norton 360 products will automatically install a product update or users may manually run LiveUpdate and reboot until there are no further updates available.

Next Steps: The safeguard hold on affected devices will be removed in the coming week to allow customers time to apply the resolving anti-virus updates.

Windows updates that are SHA-2 signed may not be offered for Symantec and Norton AV
Symantec has identified an issue that occurs when a device is running any Symantec or Norton antivirus program and installs updates for Windows that are signed with SHA-2 certificates only. The Windows updates are blocked or deleted by the antivirus program during installation, which may then cause Windows to stop working or fail to start.

Affected platforms:

  • Server: Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
Workaround: Guidance for Symantec customers can be found in the Symantec support article and the Norton support article.

Next steps: To safeguard your update experience, Microsoft and Symantec have partnered to place a safeguard hold on devices with an affected version of Symantec Antivirus or Norton Antivirus installed to prevent them from receiving this type of Windows update until a solution is available. We recommend that you do not manually install affected updates until a solution is available.

Take action: Windows 10, version 1703 (the Windows 10 Creators Update) reaches end of life on October 9, 2019
The Enterprise and Education editions of Windows 10, version 1703 (the Windows 10 Creators Update) will reach end of life on October 9, 2019. The Home, Pro, Pro for Workstations, and IoT Core editions reached end of service on October 8, 2018.

There is no extended support available for any edition of Windows 10, version 1703. Therefore, it will no longer be supported after October 9, 2019 and will not receive monthly security and quality updates containing protections from the latest security threats.

To continue receiving security and quality updates, Microsoft recommends that you update your devices to the latest version of Windows 10. For more information on end of service dates and currently supported versions of Windows 10, see the Windows lifecycle fact sheet.

Resolved: Delays starting Internet Explorer 11
On August 16, 2019 at 7:16 AM a server required for downloading the Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) startup page, went down. As a result of the server outage, IE 11 became unresponsive for some customers who had not yet installed the August 2019 security updates. Customers who had the August 2019 security update installed were not affected. In order to ensure your devices remain in a serviced and secure state, we recommend you install the latest monthly update.

This issue was resolved on the server side at 1:00 pm PST.

To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would need specialized hardware and would be limited by the signal range of the Bluetooth devices in use. For more information about this industry-wide issue, see CVE-2019-9506 | Bluetooth Encryption Key Size Vulnerability in the Microsoft Security Update Guide and important guidance for IT pros in KB4514157.

Advisory: Windows Advanced Local Procedure Call Elevation of Privilege vulnerability disclosed (CVE-2019-1162)
On August 13, 2019, Google Project Zero (GPZ) disclosed an Elevation of Privilege (EoP) vulnerability in how Windows handles calls to Advanced Local Procedure Call (ALPC) that affects Windows operating systems, versions 8.1 and higher. An attacker must already have code execution on the target system to leverage these vulnerabilities. Microsoft released security updates on August 13, 2019 that partially address this issue. Other items disclosed by GPZ require more time to address and we are working to release a resolution in mid-September. For more information, see CVE-2019-1162 | Windows ALPC Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability

As of August 13, 2019, Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 updates signatures only support SHA-2 code signing.

Reminder: Windows 10 update servicing cadence
This month we received questions about the cadence of updates we released in April and May 2019. Here's a quick recap of our releases and servicing cadence:
  • April 9, 2019 was the regular Update Tuesday release for all versions of Windows.
    • -
  • May 1, 2019 was an \"optional,\" out of band non-security update (OOB) for Windows 10, version 1809. It was released to Microsoft Catalog and WSUS, providing a critical fix for our OEM partners.
    • -
  • May 3, 2019 was the \"optional\" Windows 10, version 1809 \"C\" release for April. This update contained important Japanese era packages for commercial customers to preview. It was released later than expected and mistakenly targeted as \"required\" (instead of \"optional\") for consumers, which pushed the update out to customers and required a reboot. Within 24 hours of receiving customer reports, we corrected the targeting logic and mitigated the issue.
