About this tag
Patch Tuesday is Microsoft's monthly security update release, typically on the second Tuesday of each month. The July 2026 Patch Tuesday addressed 570 vulnerabilities across Microsoft products, including Windows 11 and Windows 10, with cumulative updates like KB5101650 for Windows 11 24H2 and 25H2. Key fixes included two exploited zero-days in Active Directory Federation Services and SharePoint Server, a BitLocker bypass, and elevation-of-privilege flaws in Offline Files and Desktop Window Manager. Administrators should prioritize deployment of these updates, especially for in-the-wild vulnerabilities, while being aware of known issues like WSUS sync delays and safeguard holds for certain hardware configurations.
