- Microsoft began rolling out an emergency out-of-band update to fix problems introduced by its September Patch Tuesday release
- The September Patch Tuesday update patched nearly 1,000 flaws, making it the company's biggest update ever
- The September update also introduced new bugs that have affected businesses and developers

Why it matters: Microsoft's biggest-ever monthly update — nearly 1,000 fixes in one shot — shipped bugs that hit the businesses and developers who most depend on Windows, forcing Microsoft into a rare mid-cycle emergency patch instead of waiting for October's scheduled release.
