Windows 10 - Patchs et correctifs (Patch Tuesday)
Microsoft propose depuis mardi dernier (13/03/2018) plusieurs mises à jours cumulatives pour toutes les versions de Windows 10. Elles sont déployées à l’occasion du Patch Tuesday.
Cette maintenance vise toutes les itérations de Windows 10. Dans certains cas il s’agit d’un support dans le cadre du LTSC contraction de Long Term Term Servicing Channel. Ceci concerne la toute première version de l’OS, Windows 10 v10240 et Windows 10 v1511. A noter que Windows 10 Anniversary Update sera également concerné d’ici quelques semaines. Son dernier Patch Tuesday classique est prévu pour le mois d’avril.
Toutes ces mises à jour cumulatives sont avant tout axées sur la sécurité. Dans certains il y a des améliorations visant les performances et la fiabilité. Vous trouverez ci-dessous l’ensemble des Updates proposés à l’occasion de ce Path Tuesday du mois de mars 2018 ainsi que les modifications apportées.

KB4088776 pour Windows 10 Fall Creators Update (1709)
Windows 10 Fall Creators Update est la version la plus récente du système d’exploitation de Microsoft. Selon la firme il s’agit de l’OS le plus sécurisé. L’installation de KB4088776 permet de le faire évoluer en version 16299.309. Son contenu apporte des améliorations, y compris des correctifs de sécurité pour les navigateurs Internet Explorer et Microsoft Edge ainsi que le noyau du système.
KB4088776 supprime également la vérification « antivirus » introduite par Microsoft en janvier dernier. Son objectif était de bloquer l’installation des mises à jour sur les systèmes exécutant des logiciels de sécurité incompatibles.

The error is “ERROR_INVALID_REPARSE_DATA”. As a result, editing some group policies using GPMC or AGPM 4.0 may fail with the error “The data present in the reparse point buffer is invalid. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80071128)”.

Due to recent work with our antivirus (AV) partners, AV software has now reached a sustained level of broad compatibility with Windows updates. After analyzing the available data, we’re lifting the AV compatibility check for the March 2018 Windows security updates for supported Windows 10 devices through Windows Update. We’ll continue to require that AV software be compatible. Devices with known AV driver compatibility problems will be blocked from updates. We recommend that customers check installed AV software compatibility with their AV provider.
