    Microsoft Security Bulletin Advance Notification for December 2013
    Issued: December 5, 2013 ********************************************************************

    This is an advance notification of security bulletins that
    Microsoft is intending to release on December 10, 2013.

    The full version of the Microsoft Security Bulletin Advance
    Notification for December 2013 can be found at http://technet.microsoft.com/security/bulletin/ms13-dec.

    This bulletin advance notification will be replaced with the
    December bulletin summary on December 10, 2013. For more
    information about the bulletin advance notification service, see http://technet.microsoft.com/security/bulletin/advance.

    To receive automatic notifications whenever Microsoft Security
    Bulletins are issued, subscribe to Microsoft Technical Security
    Notifications on
    http://technet.microsoft.com/security/dd252948.

    Microsoft will host a webcast to address customer questions on
    these bulletins on December 11, at 11:00 AM Pacific Time
    (US & Canada). Register for the Security Bulletin Webcast at http://technet.microsoft.com/security/bulletin.

    Microsoft also provides information to help customers prioritize
    monthly security updates with any non-security, high-priority
    updates that are being released on the same day as the monthly
    security updates. Please see the section, Other Information.

    This advance notification provides a number as the
    bulletin identifier, because the official Microsoft Security
    Bulletin numbers are not issued until release. The bulletin summary
    that replaces this advance notification will have the proper
    Microsoft Security Bulletin numbers (in the MSyy-xxx format) as the
    bulletin identifier. The security bulletins for this month are as
    follows, in order of severity:

    Microsoft Active Protections Program (MAPP) ===========================================
    To improve security protections for customers, Microsoft provides
    vulnerability information to major security software providers in
    advance of each monthly security update release. Security software
    providers can then use this vulnerability information to provide
    updated protections to customers via their security software or
    devices, such as antivirus, network-based intrusion detection
    systems, or host-based intrusion prevention systems. To determine
    whether active protections are available from security software
    providers, please visit the active protections websites provided by
    program partners, listed at http://www.microsoft.com/security/msrc/collaboration/mapp.aspx.

    Recognize and avoid fraudulent email to Microsoft customers: =============================================================
    If you receive an email message that claims to be distributing
    a Microsoft security update, it is a hoax that may contain
    malware or pointers to malicious websites. Microsoft does
    not distribute security updates via email.

    The Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) uses PGP to digitally
    sign all security notifications. However, PGP is not required for
    reading security notifications, reading security bulletins, or
    installing security updates. You can obtain the MSRC public PGP key
    at
    https://technet.microsoft.com/security/bulletin/pgp.
