The out-of-band updates address several issues in client and server versions of Microsoft’s Windows operating system.

The update fixes the following two issues:
- Fixes an issue that could cause IPSEC (IP Security) connections that contain Vendor IDs to fail.
- Fixes an issue that could cause removable media that is using the Resilient File System (ReFS) from failing to mount or mounting in the RAW file format.
The known issue that some ” image editing programs might not render colors correctly on certain high dynamic range (HDR) displays” remains.

- Fixes an issue that could cause removable media that is using the Resilient File System (ReFS) from failing to mount or mounting in the RAW file format.
- Fixes an issue that could cause Windows Servers to restart unexpectedly on domain controllers.
- Fixes an issue that prevented “Active Directory (AD) attributes from being written properly during a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) modify operation” when multiple attribute changes were made.
Microsoft lists three known issues, all of which are long-standing:
