A DVD5 ISO image file containing all the security bulletins made available on November 10th, 2009 for all supported Windows platforms, is now up for grabs via the Microsoft Download Center. As is the case every month, the Redmond company is accompanying the security patched it offers through Windows Update, Automatic Updates, and Microsoft Update with standalone downloads as well as with a package of updates. In this regard, the November 2009 Security Release ISO Image has become available for download earlier this week.

There are no less than six security updates packaged into the ISO image, four of which are now served through WU, AU, and MU to Windows users around the world. MS09-063, MS09-064, MS09-065, MS09-066 are all designed to patch security vulnerabilities in Windows server and client platforms, including versions such as Windows Vista SP2 and Windows XP SP3.

“This DVD5 ISO image file contains the security updates for Windows released on Windows Update on November 10th, 2009. The image does not contain security updates for other Microsoft products. This DVD5 ISO image is intended for administrators that need to download multiple individual language versions of each security update and that do not use an automated solution such as Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). You can use this ISO image to download multiple updates in all languages at the same time,” Microsoft explained.

However, in addition to the four security bulletins impacting Windows released this November, the Redmond company has also included two previously offered updates. This month the company plugged no less than 15 security holes across its two main cash cows, Windows and Office.

“Microsoft re-released Security Bulletin MS09-045 to add the detection for JScript 5.7 on Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 (KB975542) to Affected Software and Security Update Deployment sections,” Christopher Budd, Microsoft security response communications lead, told Softpedia. “Microsoft re-released Security Bulletin MS09-051 to address the update for Audio Compression Manager on Microsoft Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 to fix a detection issue. This is a detection change only; there were no changes to the binaries. Customers who have successfully updated their systems do not need to reinstall this update.”

November 2009 Security Release ISO Image is available for download here.
