  • The update addresses unexpected User Account Control prompts for some apps, including Autodesk AutoCAD.1
    Addresses unexpected UAC prompts during MSI repair operations.

Security

For: domain controllers using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint

  • The update addresses a problem that could disrupt cloud communication after promoting a domain controller.2
    The issue affects Windows Server domain controllers using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint; changes to registry permissions after domain controller promotion disrupted cloud-based communication.

Networking

Verified in package

For: servers using HTTP.sys, particularly with front-end proxies

  • HTTP request parsing is corrected to avoid a parsing discrepancy when front-end proxies are part of the setup.3
    The HTTP.sys request parser now addresses acceptance of a single line break in HTTP/1.1 chunk extensions, where RFC 9112 requires a CRLF sequence. To turn on strict parsing, set HttpAllowLenientChunkExtParsing to DWORD 0 under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Http\Parameters.

Improvement 1 change

Servicing stack

For: devices receiving Windows updates

  • The component that installs Windows updates receives quality improvements.4
    Includes the Windows Server 2022 servicing stack update KB5068786, build 20348.4400.
