This zero-day vulnerability went from 'not a security issue' to an immediate safety update in less than three months.

Microsoft has rolled out security updates as part of its June 2022 Windows updates to address a serious security bug that has targeted programs including Microsoft Word.

Interestingly, if you have June's update installed, you can choose to make your system vulnerable to Follina / CVE-2022-30190 again if you set the TurnOffCheck registry value. Researchers became aware of the security flaw in late May; however, Microsoft appeared to not closely address the situation, offering manual Command prompt workarounds for the issue rather than a software patch.

The first Follina attacks might have started as early as mid-April, “with sextortion threats and invitations to Sputnik Radio interviews as baits,” Bleeping Computer added.
