TL;DR Summary

Microsoft released a critical out-of-band update for Windows Server Update Services (WSUS) to fix a severe vulnerability (CVE-2025-59287) that allows remote code execution, affecting servers with the WSUS role enabled. The update is urgent, especially as WSUS is deprecated, prompting Microsoft to recommend switching to cloud-based solutions like Intune. A reboot is required, and administrators are advised to disable the role or block specific ports if immediate patching isn't possible.
