March 2023 Patch Tuesday: Security updates lineup Usually zero-day vulnerabilities are also fixed during Patch Tuesday unless the vulnerability is critical and highly exploited, in which case an out-of-band security update is released to address that particular vulnerability. Important security updates and patches to fix critical bugs or vulnerabilities are released on Patch Tuesday. Since Microsoft has upheld this process of releasing updates in a periodic manner, IT admins expect these updates and have time to gear up for them. On this day, Microsoft releases security and non-security updates for its operating system and other related applications.
Patch Tuesday falls on the second Tuesday of every month.
