It’s a busy day in the land of Exchange today, with updates for both Exchange 2007 and Exchange 2010. Exchange 2010 SP2 RU6 is now available as update 2746164.
Exchange 2010 SP2 RU6 is also released as part of Patch Tuesday to resolve the security issues that are addressed in Exchange 2007 SP3 RU10. For reference they are CVE-2013-0393 and CVE-2013-0418 as discussed in the Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory - January 2013. Microsoft has classified one of these issues as critical and the other as important
