Welcome to my February 2025 Patch Monday newsletter! We only have one zero day to talk about for the past 30 days and a single priority one update from Adobe.
Let's talk about our zero day first. Apple released updates for both its newer and older devices. iPadOS 17.7.5 and iOS/iPadOS 18.3.1 were released on February 10 to address CVE-2025-24200. This vulnerability allows a locked device, with USB Restricted Mode enabled, to be disabled. Apple says they are aware that this issue may have been exploited against specifically targeted individuals. Are you one of them? Chances are you are not :), but I recommend you update your device(s) soon.
Next is a rare priority 1 update from Adobe. Adobe released new versions for Commerce, Commerce B2B and Magento Open Source. Part of this update includes an isolated patch for CVE-2025-24434 which affects Commerce and Magento Open Source. Adobe has given this a critical priority 1 rating. You can read their release notes here. According to Adobe you will want to apply the latest updates as soon as possible.
Google released four version updates for Chrome in the past 30 days covering 21 security fixes. Of these 8 are rated as critical but thankfully there are no reported zero days. So, as usual, make sure Chrome gets restarted so that it can update.
This month's newsletter sponsor, LOGbinder, has just released a new version of Supercharger for Windows Event Collection. I'm mentioning it here because many of you are users and have been asking when the .net 8 update will be released. You can download the latest update here or if you have an existing support contract and don't want to fill out the form then just email sales@logbinder.com.
Be sure to browse the chart below and happy patching!

So, without further ado, here’s the chart of non-Microsoft 3rd party patches that affect Windows platforms in the past month.
Thanks as always for reading and best wishes on security,
