I'm trying to determine if Windows 7 Pro was patched to protect it from WannaCry. If there was a patch, I'm also trying to determine how to verify that I received the update including the patch. I currently don't have any new available updates in Windows Update.

Reviewing Security Bulletin MS17-010, I certainly see updates listed for Windows 7 that include the following KBs:

  • 4012212
  • 4012215

I can also see these updates in the Microsoft Update Catalog:

However, when I search my installed updates, I can't find either of these updates. This leads me to think that there are three possibilities:

  1. I had not installed updates via Windows Update in quite some time (until yesterday) so maybe the updates from MS17-101 were rolled into another update that I did receive like the following:
    1. May, 2017 Security and Quality Rollup for .NET Framework 3.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.6, 4.6.1, 4.6.2 on Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 for x64 (KB4019112)
  2. In order to update Windows 7 Pro, you actually have to *manually* install the updates via Microsoft Update Catalog.

  3. There were no updates for my flavor of Windows 7 Pro for some reason.

Does anyone know which of the above options is accurate? Maybe there is another that I haven't come up with?

Microsoft has released an emergency out-of-band patch for a critical flaw, affecting all supported versions of Windows.

The software giant said in an advisory Monday that the vulnerability, if exploited, could 'allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted document or visits an untrusted webpage that contains embedded OpenType fonts.'

Microsoft's monthly release of patches includes security fixes for dozens of vulnerabilities.

'An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights,' the advisory added.

In other words, a previously undisclosed flaw in the way Windows handles certain fonts can allow a hacker to take over an entire machine.

Users running Windows Vista, Windows 7, 8, 8.1 and Windows RT are all affected, including those running Windows Server 2008 and later. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed in an emailed statement that Windows 10 Insider Preview is also affected.

The 'critical'-rated software update lands almost a week after its scheduled Patch Tuesday where it typically issues security fixes. Microsoft said it believed the flaw was public but did not have any evidence to suggest it was being actively exploited.

The patch is available over Windows Update.

Security researchers from Google's Project Zero and FireEye were credited with finding the flaw.
