This is why I'm in the process of switching to Linux as my daily driver and for service hosts. Putting all sorts of shit in the urgent security patch category was the final step. If you can't trust a security patch you can't trust microsoft at all.

I wish I could remember the exact things they pushed but I have a feeling they were windows 10 related.

Can't edit but I found a new example when looking to see if I could be vulnerable to WannaCry.

In the May 9th 'Security Rollup'; "Updated Internet Explorer 11’s New Tab Page with an integrated newsfeed." [0]

I cannot disentagle this update from the other ACTUAL security updates.
