Microsoft Windows 11 and Windows 10 December 2021 cumulative updates are now available for users of PCs with either of those operating systems. December 2021 Patch Tuesday update provides at least 67 security patches, seven being critical, that address some known issues in internal OS features.
These fixes address Denial of Service, Elevation of Privilege, Remote Code Execution, Information Disclosure, and Spoofing vulnerabilities. They include at least six zero-day vulnerabilities as well as non-security fixes for Windows 10 version 2004 or later.
