Microsoft has rolled out an out-of-band security update to Windows 10 October 2018 Update, April 2018 Update, Fall Creators Update, Creators Update, Anniversary Update, and the original version of Windows 10. Today’s update only brings one security fix to Internet Explorer to patch up a zero-day remote code execution vulnerability that could give attackers full admin rights.

The security update is also available for Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows Server.

due-diligence - seems surprisng the likes of kaspersky et all have not associated any particular breeches associated with this, or tha MS do not give such details, but, good PA for MS versus it's other win10 issues.

Anyway .. who says chrome has fewer problems fixed surreptitiously by auto patches. eg https://thehackernews.com/2018/06/google-chrome-csp.html
do they wash their dirty washing as much.
