Patchday: Windows 10-Updates (August 9, 2022)

Windows[German]On August 9, 2022 (second Tuesday of the month, Patchday at Microsoft), several cumulative updates were released for the supported Windows 10 builds (from RTM version to the current version). Here are some details about each security update.

A list of the updates can be found on this Microsoft website. I have pulled out the details below. Since March 2021, yes, Microsoft has been integrating Servicing Stack Updates (SSUs) for newer Windows 10 builds into the cumulative update. The description of the fixes in the June 14, 2022 security updates is extremely brief. Those looking for details on the fixes will have to check the descriptions of the preview updates from previous weeks (see also the list of posts linked at the end of the article).

Updates for Windows 10 Version 20H2-21H2

For the Windows 10 versions mentioned above, Microsoft provides only one update package, which is mentioned below.

Update KB5016616 for Windows 10 Version 20H2 – 21H2

Cumulative update KB5016616 raises the OS build to 19042.1889 for Windows Server version 20H2, 19043.1889 for Windows 10 version 21H1, and 19044.1889 for Windows 10 version 21H2. Support is ending for Windows Server 20H2. The update only includes security fixes, but no new operating system features – and Microsoft is giving the following details:

  • Addresses an issue that affects the printing of files you submit to a printer.
  • Addresses a known issue that might prevent the Input Indicator and Language Bar from displaying in the notification area. This issue affects devices that have more than one language installed.
  • Addresses security issues for your Windows operating system.

Regarding the improvements, Microsoft lists the following item:

  • Addresses an issue that might cause the Local Security Authority Server Service (LSASS) to leak tokens. This issue affects devices that have installed Windows updates dated June 14, 2022 or later. This issue occurs when the device performs a specific form of service for user (S4U) in a non-Trusted Computing Base (TCB) Windows service that runs as Network Service.
  • Addresses an issue that creates a duplicate print queue. This causes the original print queue to lose functionality.
  • Addresses a known issue that might prevent the Input Indicator and Language Bar from displaying in the notification area. This issue affects devices that have more than one language installed.

Microsoft notes that this update makes quality improvements to the servicing stack (is responsible for Microsoft updates). This update is automatically downloaded and installed by Windows Update, but is also available from the Microsoft Update Catalog and via WSUS and WUfB. Note the installation sequence described in the support article and also the notes on further requirements. Microsoft states various known issues for the update in the support article.

This all here doesn´t help me any further, my update tries failed last month and this month, so I had to pause the automated updates until the 19th of August. No idea what to do then, they´ll fail again.
