13 on 13th - Microsoft Security Bulletins next week

Microsoft is planning to release 13 security bulletins on Oct. 13.  Affected products are:  Windows, Office, Silverlight, Forefront, IE, Developer Tools and SQL Server.

MSRC wrote in a blog that the 13 security bulletins include 2 of the current security advisory:  KB975497 (the popular SMB vulnerability but not getting attention from hackers) and KB975191 (the vulnerability in FTP).  Note that those have work-arounds that some of us applied. There is undo "Fix It" solutions that you might want to grab and use before installing the security updates next week.

As always, there is security bulletins webcast next day (after the updates are released).
