Microsoft January 2025 Patch Tuesday – 159 Vulnerabilities Fixed, Including 10 Critical RCE’s

Microsoft released a security as part of the Junuray Patch Tuesday that addressed 159 vulnerabilities, including 10 classified as critical Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerabilities. These fixes are crucial for securing Windows operating systems and related software against potential exploitation.

Key Highlights of December 2024 Patch Tuesday Updates:

  1. CVE-2025-21362 & CVE-2025-21354: Both involve vulnerabilities in Microsoft Excel that allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted file. These are critical as they could enable attackers to execute arbitrary code with user privileges.
  2. CVE-2025-21311: A critical vulnerability in Windows NTLM V1 that could allow privilege escalation, potentially giving attackers higher access levels on the system.
  3. CVE-2025-21309 & CVE-2025-21297: Both relate to vulnerabilities in Windows Remote Desktop Services, enabling remote code execution through maliciously crafted connections or files.
  4. CVE-2025-21307: Affects the Reliable Multicast Transport Driver (RMCAST), allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.
  5. CVE-2025-21298 & CVE-2025-21296: These involve vulnerabilities in Windows OLE and BranchCache, respectively, which could permit remote code execution via crafted inputs.
  6. CVE-2025-21295 & CVE-2025-21294: Both are critical remote code execution vulnerabilities affecting authentication mechanisms (SPNEGO and Digest Authentication), which could compromise system integrity.
