I found this KB5031589 installed on several servers. But I cannot find any information about it anywhere?

It is not in the Microsoft Update Catalog!

Only Google search result is: https://bbs.pcbeta.com/viewthread-1982648-1-1.html

It´s not in my WSUS (Servers are NOT looking at WU but only at my WSUS).

Please share your thoughts on this:-)?

    I stumbled upon this article with the same question. I tried Googling and got no results. That said, a colleague suggested that I try searching with Duck Duck Go. Sure enough, I searched the KB using DDG and actually got viable hits. I purposely created an account just so I could help ya guys out.

    Searching DDG, I came across these 3 articles. How are why Google is unable to index something like these KBs. no clue? But I guess going forward to get an accurate representation of search results, one must now use multiple search engines to get information now.
