Microsoft has released patches for six actively exploited zero-day vulnerabilities, including three in the NTFS file system and another in the Fast FAT File System Driver. The most critical issues involve a remote code execution flaw and a serious heap-based buffer overflow, with recommendations for users to restrict virtual hard disk sources to reduce risks.
