???Microsoft Releases November 2024 Security Updates for Exchange Server??? Microsoft has just released Security Updates (SUs) for vulnerabilities found in Exchange Server 2019 and Exchange Server 2016. These updates are available for Exchange Server 2019 CU13 and CU14, and Exchange Server 2016 CU23. Although there are no active exploits in the wild, it is highly recommended to install these updates immediately to protect your environment. ???Key Highlights: AMSI Integration Improvements:?Products using Exchange Server AMSI integration can now perform additional tasks on message bodies. This feature is disabled by default and can be enabled on a per-protocol basis. Start with a subset of services to avoid potential performance issues. Non-compliant RFC 5322 P2 FROM Header Detection:?A new feature to detect non-RFC 5322 compliant P2 FROM headers in incoming emails, addressing vulnerability CVE-2024-49040. ECC Certificate Support Improvements:?ECC certificates can now be used on Edge Transport servers and bound to POP and IMAP services. Note the change in enabling ECC Certificate support from a New-SettingOverride to creating a registry value. ???Update Installation: Install the Latest CU:?Use the Exchange Update Wizard to get directions. Inventory Your Exchange Servers:?Use the Exchange Server Health Checker script to determine needed updates. Re-run Health Checker Post-Installation:?Ensure no further actions are needed. Encounter Errors??Run the SetupAssist script or see the documentation for repair instructions.
