Microsoft patches record 198 Windows bugs in June update – and 3 are zero days

Microsoft's latest Patch Tuesday addressed 198 security vulnerabilities, the most extensive update in recent memory. Among these, 32 flaws are classified as critical, and three are zero-day vulnerabilities. The updates are detailed in KB articles: KB5094126 for Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2, KB5093998 for version 23H2, and KB5094127 for Windows 10. The updates will automatically download and install, but users must verify their installation status and reboot their computers for changes to take effect. The vulnerabilities addressed this month are attributed to advancements in artificial intelligence, with companies like Microsoft leveraging AI models to expedite the identification and resolution of security flaws. The three zero-day vulnerabilities include one that allows an attacker to gain Windows System privileges through a flaw in file link resolution, another that could facilitate a denial-of-service attack via an HTTP vulnerability, and a third related to a flaw in Windows BitLocker that could enable data capture from an unpatched PC. Additionally, the update introduces new features to Windows 11, including new Secure Boot certificates, a Low Latency Profile for enhanced performance, support for shared audio devices for multiple Bluetooth connections, webcam functionality across multiple applications, and the ability to assign a custom name to the user folder during setup.

Android Auto vs. Android Automotive: 5 major things that separate the two

Android Automotive is an operating system that runs directly on a vehicle's hardware, allowing access to features like navigation and music streaming without needing a smartphone connection. It manages various car functions, including climate control and seat ventilation, and can interact with Google’s Gemini for system control. In contrast, Android Auto mirrors a smartphone's interface on the car's display and primarily provides access to screen and audio output. Updates for Android Auto are managed through the smartphone, while Android Automotive updates are delivered by the vehicle manufacturer, which can vary in timeliness. Android Auto is widely available across many vehicles, whereas Android Automotive is less common and requires manufacturers to integrate it into the car's architecture.
