Microsoft this week pulled one of the 11 security updates it issued earlier in the month, citing "quality issues" for the retraction.
Elsewhere, the company acknowledged that the original patch didn't do its job. "Today, we pulled the update because we found it does not address the underlying issue effectively," said Jerry Bryant, group manager for the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC), in a post to the team's blog Wednesday.
Microsoft has stopped distributing the update through its various update mechanisms, including Windows Update and the enterprise-grade Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). Bryant said that Microsoft plans to re-release the patch next week.
