After installing security intelligence update build 1.381.2140.0 for Microsoft Defender, application shortcuts in the Start menu, pinned to the taskbar, and on the Desktop might be missing or deleted. Additionally, errors might be observed when trying to run executable (.exe) files which have dependencies on shortcut files. Affected devices have the Atack Surface Reduction (ASR) rule "Block Win32 API calls from Office macro" enabled. After installing security intelligence build 1.381.2140.0, detections resulted in the deletion of certain Windows shortcut (.lnk) files that matched the incorrect detection pattern.
Windows devices used by consumers in their home or small offices are not likely to be affected by this issue.
Workaround: Changes to Microsoft Defender can mitigate this issue. The Atack Surface Reduction (ASR) rules in Microsoft Defender are used to regulate software behavior as part of security measures. Changing ASR rules to Audit Mode can help prevent this issue. This can be done through the following options:
- Using Intune: Enable attack surface reduction rules | Defender for Endpoint: Microsoft Endpoint Manager
- Using Group Policy: Enable attack surface reduction rules | Defender for Endpoint: Group Policy
Microsoft Office applications can be launched through the Microsoft 365 app launcher. More details on the Microsoft 365 app launcher can be found in Meet the Microsoft 365 app launcher
Next steps: This issue is resolved in security intelligence update build 1.381.2164.0. Installing security intelligence update build 1.381.2164.0 or later should prevent the issue, but it will not restore previously deleted shortcuts. You will need to recreate or restore these shortcuts through other methods. For additional information and help recovering missing shortcuts, see Recovering from Attack Surface Reduction rule shortcut deletions (updated on January 17, 2023 to include additional guidance and scripts to help with recovery).
Affected platforms:

Database connections using Microsoft ODBC SQL Server driver might fail.
| Status | Originating update | History | Resolved KB5022286 | OS Build 17763.3650 KB5019966 2022-11-08 | Resolved: 2023-01-10, 10:00 PT Opened: 2022-12-05, 15:45 PT |

After installing KB5019966, apps which use ODBC connections utilizing the Microsoft ODBC SQL Server Driver (sqlsrv32.dll) to access databases might fail to connect. You might receive an error within the app or you might receive an error from SQL Server, such as "The EMS System encountered a problem" with "Message: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Protocol error in TDS Stream" or "Message: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Unknown token received from SQL Server". Note for developers: Apps affected by this issue might fail to fetch data, for example when using the SQLFetch function. This issue might occur when calling SQLBindCol function before SQLFetch or calling SQLGetData function after SQLFetch and when a value of 0 (zero) is given for the ‘BufferLength’ argument for fixed datatypes larger than 4 bytes (such as SQL_C_FLOAT).
If you are unsure if you are using any affected apps, open any apps which use a database and then open Command Prompt (select Start then type command prompt and select it) and type the following command:
tasklist /m sqlsrv32.dll
Workaround: To mitigate this issue, you can do one of the following:
- If your app is already using or able to use Data Source Name (DSN) to select ODBC connections, install Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server and select it for use with your app using DSN. Note: We recommend the latest version of Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server, as it is more compatible with apps currently using the legacy Microsoft ODBC SQL Server Driver (sqlsrv32.dll) than Microsoft ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server.
- If your app is unable to use DSN, the app will need to be modified to allow for DSN or to use a newer ODBC driver than Microsoft ODBC SQL Server Driver (sqlsrv32.dll).
Resolution: This issue was resolved in KB5022286. If you have implemented the above workaround, it is recommended to continue using the configuration in the workaround.
Affected platforms:
- Client: Windows 11, version 22H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 11, version 21H2; Windows 10, version 21H2; Windows 10, version 21H1; Windows 10, version 20H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2016; Windows 10 Enterprise 2015 LTSB; Windows 8.1; Windows 7 SP1

After installing KB5021237 on Hyper-V hosts managed by Software Defined Networking (SDN) configured System Center Virtual Machine Manager (VMM), you might receive an error on workflows involving creating a new Network Adapter (also called a Network Interface Card or NIC) joined to a VM network or a new Virtual Machine (VM) with a Network Adapter joined to a VM network. Existing VMs with existing Network Adapters should not have issues connecting after installing KB5021237, only new Network Adapters created after installation of KB5021237 are affected.
When experiencing this issue, you might receive one of the following errors:
- When creating a new VM or a new network adapter on an existing VM, you might receive, "<vmName> failed to modify device 'Ethernet Connection"
- Software defined networking (SDN) software load balancer service might fail, and you might receive, "<SLBVMName> failed to modify device 'Ethernet Connection' error"
- SDN RAS Gateway service might fail, and you might receive, "<GatewayVMName> failed to modify device 'Ethernet Connection' error"
Workaround: To mitigate this issue, open an elevated PowerShell window (select the Start button then type powershell, right click or long press on it and select "Run as Administrator") on all SCVMM managed Hyper-V hosts and run the following commands:
$lang = (Get-WinSystemLocale).Name
C:\Windows\system32\wbem\mofcomp.exe C:\Windows\system32\wbem\$lang\VfpExt.mfl
C:\Windows\system32\wbem\mofcomp.exe C:\Windows\system32\wbem\VfpExt.mof
A script with this workaround for large scale deployments and a post-install script that can be integrated with patching tools are available in this KB article.
Resolution: This issue was resolved in out-of-band (OOB) updates released December 20, 2022 for installation on all Hyper-V hosts in your environment which are using Software Defined Networking (SDN) and managed by System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM). You do not need to install any update or make any changes to other servers or client devices in your environment to resolve this issue.

After installing KB5019966 or later updates on Domain Controllers (DCs), you might experience a memory leak with Local Security Authority Subsystem Service (LSASS,exe). Depending on the workload of your DCs and the amount of time since the last restart of the server, LSASS might continually increase memory usage with the up time of your server and the server might become unresponsive or automatically restart. Note: The out-of-band updates for DCs released November 17, 2022 and November 18, 2022 might be affected by this issue.
Workaround: To mitigate this issue, open Command Prompt as Administrator and use the following command to set the registry key KrbtgtFullPacSignature to 0:
reg add "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\services\KDC" -v "KrbtgtFullPacSignature" -d 0 -t REG_DWORD
Note: Once this known issue is resolved, you should set KrbtgtFullPacSignature to a higher setting depending on what your environment will allow. It is recommended to enable Enforcement mode as soon as your environment is ready. For more information on this registry key, please see KB5020805: How to manage Kerberos protocol changes related to CVE-2022-37967.
Resolution: This issue was resolved in KB5021237. If you used the above workaround, please see KB5020805: How to manage Kerberos protocol changes related to CVE-2022-37967 for further information on how to configure KrbtgtFullPacSignature.

Updated November 18, 2022: Added update information for Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
After installing updates released on November 8, 2022 or later on Windows Servers with the Domain Controller role, you might have issues with Kerberos authentication. This issue might affect any Kerberos authentication in your environment. Some scenarios which might be affected:
- Domain user sign in might fail. This also might affect Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) authentication.
- Group Managed Service Accounts (gMSA) used for services such as Internet Information Services (IIS Web Server) might fail to authenticate.
- Remote Desktop connections using domain users might fail to connect.
- You might be unable to access shared folders on workstations and file shares on servers.
- Printing that requires domain user authentication might fail.
When this issue is encountered you might receive a Microsoft-Windows-Kerberos-Key-Distribution-Center Event ID 14 error event in the System section of Event Log on your Domain Controller with the below text. Note: affected events will have "the missing key has an ID of 1":
While processing an AS request for target service <service>, the account <account name> did not have a suitable key for generating a Kerberos ticket (the missing key has an ID of 1). The requested etypes : 18 3. The accounts available etypes : 23 18 17. Changing or resetting the password of <account name> will generate a proper key.
Note: This issue is not an expected part of the security hardening for Netlogon and Kerberos starting with November 2022 security update. You will still need to follow the guidance in these articles even after this issue is resolved.
Windows devices used at home by consumers or devices which are not part of a on premises domain are not affected by this issue. Azure Active Directory environments that are not hybrid and do not have any on premises Active Directory servers are not affected.
Resolution: This issue was resolved in out-of-band updates released November 17, 2022 and November 18, 2022 for installation on all the Domain Controllers (DCs) in your environment. You do not need to install any update or make any changes to other servers or client devices in your environment to resolve this issue. If you used any workaround or mitigations for this issue, they are no longer needed, and we recommend you remove them.
To get the standalone package for these out-of-band updates, search for the KB number in the Microsoft Update Catalog. You can manually import these updates into Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) and Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager. For WSUS instructions, see WSUS and the Catalog Site. For Configuration Manger instructions, see Import updates from the Microsoft Update Catalog. Note The below updates are not available from Windows Update and will not install automatically.
Cumulative updates:
Note: You do not need to apply any previous update before installing these cumulative updates. If you have already installed updates released November 8, 2022, you do not need to uninstall the affected updates before installing any later updates including the updates listed above.
Standalone Updates:
- Windows Server 2012 R2: KB5021653

Possible issues caused by Daylight Savings Time change in Jordan
| Status | Originating update | History | Resolved KB5019966 | N/A | Resolved: 2022-11-08, 10:00 PT Opened: 2022-10-21, 14:34 PT |

On October 5, 2022, the Jordanian government made an official announcement ending the winter-time Daylight Saving Time (DST) time zone change. Starting at 12:00 a.m. Friday, October 28, 2022, the official time will not advance by an hour and will permanently shift to the UTC + 3 time zone.
The impact of this change is as follows:
- Clocks will not be advanced by an hour at 12:00 a.m. on October 28, 2022 for the Jordan time zone.
- The Jordan time zone will permanently shift to the UTC + 3 time zone.
Symptoms if no update is installed and the workaround is not used on devices in the Jordan time zone on October 28, 2022 or later:
- Time shown in Windows and apps will not be correct.
- Apps and cloud services which use date and time for integral functions, such as Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Outlook, notifications and scheduling of meetings might be 60 minutes off.
- Automation using date and time, such as Scheduled tasks, might not run at the expected time.
- Timestamp on transactions, files, and logs will be 60 minutes off.
- Operations that rely on time-dependent protocols such as Kerberos might cause authentication failures when attempting to logon or access resources.
- Windows devices and apps outside of Jordan might also be affected if they are connecting to servers or devices in Jordan or if they are scheduling or attending meetings taking place in Jordan from another location or time zone. Windows devices outside of Jordan should not use the workaround, as it would change their local time on the device.
Workaround: You can mitigate this issue on devices in Jordan by doing either of the following on October 28, 2022, if an update is not available to resolve this issue for your version of Windows:
- Select the Windows logo key, type "Date and time", and select Date and time settings. From the Date & time settings page, toggle Adjust for daylight saving time automatically to Off.
- Go to Control Panel > Clock and Region > Date and Time > Change time zone and uncheck the option for “Automatically adjust clock for Daylight Saving Time”.
Important: We recommend using ONLY the above workaround to mitigate the issue with time created by the new Daylight Savings Time in Jordan. We do NOT recommend using any other workaround, as they can create inconsistent results and might create serious issues if done incorrectly.
Resolution: This issue was resolved in KB5019966.
Affected platforms:
- Client: Windows 11, version 22H2; Windows 11, version 21H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10, version 21H2; Windows 10, version 21H1; Windows 10, version 20H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2016; Windows 10 Enterprise 2015 LTSB; Windows 8.1; Windows 7 SP1

IT administrators who utilize Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) might notice that the Windows September 2022 preview update, known as the 'C' release, is listed among the updates available from WSUS. This listing is an error. Preview updates are generally available for manual importing via the Microsoft Update Catalog and Windows Updates.
This issue might also affect the installation of the September 2022 Cumulative Update Preview for .NET Framework, which is also generally available via Windows Update and Microsoft Update Catalog. For more information on .NET Framework September 2022 Cumulative Update Preview updates, see the KB articles listed on the .NET blog for the September 2022 Cumulative Update Preview.
Home users of Windows are unlikely to experience this issue. WSUS is commonly utilized by technology administrators to deploy Microsoft product updates in managed environments.
Workaround: The Windows September 2022 preview release was made available via Microsoft Update Catalog. We recommend IT administrators to use this release channel moving forward.
Please note: In environments where WSUS is configured to auto-approve updates and also auto-decline superseded content, the Windows September 2022 Security update may subsequently be auto-declined and auto-expired from the client view. If this occurs, see the guidance for reinstating declined updates. Then run an update synchronization within Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager, or update management environments. Environments configured to only take security updates should not reflect these symptoms.
Resolution: The Windows September 2022 preview release was removed from WSUS. We recommend IT administrators use the Microsoft Update Catalog to download and install updates in their environments. As always, we recommend the installation of the latest Windows security updates for all devices (the October 2022 security monthly release, KB5018419, or later).
Affected platforms:
- Client: Windows 11, version 21H2; Windows 10, version 21H2; Windows 11, version 21H1; Windows 10, version 20H2; Windows 10, version 1809

After installing KB5017315, file copies using Group Policy Preferences might fail or might create empty shortcuts or files using 0 (zero) bytes. Known affected Group Policy Objects are related to files and shortcuts in User Configuration -> Preferences -> Windows Settings in Group Policy Editor.
Workaround: To mitigate this issue, you can do ONE of the following:
- Uncheck the "Run in logged-on user's security context (user policy option)". Note: This might not mitigate the issue for items using a wildcard (*).
- Within the affected Group Policy, change "Action" from "Replace" to "Update".
- If a wildcard (*) is used in the location or destination, deleting the trailing "\" (backslash, without quotes) from the destination might allow the copy to be successful.
Resolution: This issue was resolved in KB5018419. Installation of KB5018419 prevents and resolves this issue but if any workaround was used to mitigate this issue, it will need to be changed back to your original configuration.
