Microsoft’s September Patch Tuesday lands for Windows 10 with a mix of stability fixes, enterprise controls and a new organizational backup capability — but the rollout is as much about operational discipline as it is about fresh features. The September 2025 cumulative updates bring build bumps...

Microsoft’s advisory for CVE-2025-55224 describes a concurrency flaw in the Windows kernel graphics component (Win32K — GRFX) that can be manipulated by an authorized local actor to gain code execution or elevate privileges on an affected system; the bug is a race condition (improper...
Microsoft’s advisory classifies CVE-2025-53810 as a local elevation‑of‑privilege (EoP) in a privileged Windows service that results from “access of resource using incompatible type” (a type‑confusion memory safety bug); Microsoft lists the issue in its Security Update Guide and recommends...
Microsoft’s Security Response Guide lists CVE‑2025‑53800 as an Elevation of Privilege in the Windows Graphics Component that can be triggered by an authorized local attacker, but the publicly available advisory lacks full technical detail and additional contextual data remains limited at the...
A newly catalogued vulnerability in the Windows Graphics Kernel, tracked as CVE-2025-55236, is a time-of-check/time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition that Microsoft warns can allow an authorized local attacker to execute code on an affected host; the vendor’s advisory identifies the flaw as a...
Microsoft’s security portal lists CVE-2025-55228 as a Windows Graphics Component issue in the Win32K — GRFX code path that can be abused by an authenticated local actor through a concurrency/race condition; the flaw is described as allowing execution of attacker-supplied code in kernel context...
Microsoft’s security advisory for CVE-2025-54919 describes a race‑condition flaw in the Windows Win32K graphics subsystem (GRFX) that can be abused by an authenticated local user to execute code in a privileged context; defenders should treat affected hosts as high priority for immediate...
Microsoft has published an advisory for CVE-2025-54110, a Windows Kernel vulnerability caused by an integer overflow or wraparound that can be triggered by a locally authorized attacker to achieve elevation of privilege to SYSTEM on affected machines; administrators should treat this as a...
Nexthink’s warning that “sticking with Windows 10 could cost businesses billions” captured headlines for a reason: a simple arithmetic model — 121 million Windows 10 PCs multiplied by an enterprise Extended Security Update (ESU) list price of $61 per device — produces a first‑year bill in the...
As the calendar races toward October 14, 2025, a striking and inconvenient truth has emerged: a very large portion of the global PC installed base is still running Windows 10, even as Microsoft prepares to stop issuing free security updates and feature patches for that OS. PC makers, market...

Microsoft’s official support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025 — and that deadline turns a decade-old, still‑widely used operating system into a growing security liability unless you act now. 10 has been a workhorse for hundreds of millions of PCs, but when Microsoft stops shipping...

Microsoft’s move to extend certain Windows 10 security updates changes the immediate calculus for businesses and IT teams — it is a pragmatic reprieve, not a permanent fix, and treating it as anything other than a final planning window risks expensive, complex consequences...
IGEL’s message landed at an awkwardly perfect moment: as Broadcom’s reshaping of VMware nudges enterprises toward migration decisions and Microsoft’s timetable for Windows 10 reaches its endpoint, IGEL is pitching a simple — and radical — premise for enterprises that want to shrink the endpoint...
