[BESAdmin-Announcements] Content Modification Announcement - Enterprise Security

[Announcements for BES Administrators]

BigFix has modified two sets of content in the Enterprise Security site.

1. The patches provided for MS08-032 on Windows Vista Service Pack 1 and
Server 2008 do not set kill bits explicitly mentioned in the Security
Bulletin since, by default, these systems come with the kill bits set.
However, if they are removed, systems may show relevant for the security
update. A second action has been added that sets these kill bits
directly instead of using the Microsoft patch update, and the default
action has been removed for the following Fixlet messages:

ID: 803211      MS08-032: Cumulative Security Update of ActiveX Kill
Bits - Windows Vista Gold/SP1
ID: 803213      MS08-032: Cumulative Security Update of ActiveX Kill
Bits - Windows Vista (x64)
ID: 803215      MS08-032: Cumulative Security Update of ActiveX Kill
Bits - Windows Server 2008
ID: 803217      MS08-032: Cumulative Security Update of ActiveX Kill
Bits - Windows Server 2008 (x64)


2. The following Fixlet messages have been modified for backwards
compatibility with BES 5.1 clients:

IDs: 390, 391, 38119, 38121, 38122, 38204, 38205, 38206, 46105, 48104,
52101, 52102, 52104, 52105, 52106, 52107, 52108, 704211, 704213, 704215,
704231, 705403, 47103


BES administrators are encouraged to verify open actions and synchronize
baselines that contain the modified content.  Instructions for
synchronizing baselines can be found here:

change.
