Some big names in tech *have been going big* on security patches in June 2018.

We’ve already reported on Microsoft, which announced more than 50 cybersecurity related patches this month to fix [a long list of vulnerabilities](https://www.secureworld.io/industry-news/microsofts-security-patches).

Now it is Cisco’s turn, and US-CERT has issued an alert about the company’s patches.

#### **Cisco vulnerabilities being addressed include the following:**

- Arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities
- Arbitrary Command injection vulnerabilities
- Denial of Service (DNS) vulnerabilities
- API Privilege Escalation vulnerabilities
- Unauthorized administrator account vulnerabilities
- Snooping vulnerabilities
- Appliance Path Traversal Vulnerability

We’ve just hit the highlights here, so please [read the US-CERT Cisco alert](https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/current-activity/2018/06/20/Cisco-Releases-Security-Updates-Multiple-Products) for specific details*. *
