Microsoft has cleaned up bugs found in security updates from last month's Patch Tuesday.
One of them was a CryptoAPI patch that was supposed to fix a vulnerability that allowed spoofing, but had the side effect of causing services required by the Communications Server to fail to start.
There is now a fix for the issue that is available to download.
The other two re-released patches are for Microsoft security bulletins MS09-043 and MS09-62 from last month's release.
The MS09-043 was rereleased to re-offer the update for Microsoft Office 2003 Service Pack 3 and Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components Service Pack 3, to fix a detection issue when Microsoft Office Access Runtime 2003 was installed.
MS09-62 corrected "detection entries" and "file and registry key information" issues.
