A Critical Patch Update is a collection of patches for multiple security vulnerabilities. Critical Patch Update patches are cumulative but each advisory describes only the security fixes added since the previous Critical Patch Update advisory. Thus, prior Critical Patch Update advisories should be reviewed for information regarding earlier published security fixes. Please refer to:
