This security update contains fixes for the following nonsecurity issues:

  • Fixes an issue where metadata about the Public Update that was stored in the Windows Registry contained non-printable characters.

  • Fixes the issue in which the screen reader doesn't read letters when you delete words.

  • Fixes the issue where the posted news doesn't show up in the "News" web part in Internet Explorer by using the list layout.

  • Fixes the role relationship issue at the "Document" page for accessibility.

  • Fixes the issue in which the ARIA toggle field in details list doesn't have an accessible name.
