Improvements and fixes
This security update contains fixes for the following nonsecurity issues in SharePoint Enterprise Server 2016:
-
Fixes the known issue in KB 5002618 in which some SharePoint PowerShell cmdlets don't function correctly because the Microsoft.SharePoint.ApplicationPages.SPThemes class is marked as unsafe in all Web.config files.

Known issues in this update
-
After you apply this update, you might experience an issue that affects the deserialization of custom types that inherit from IDictionary. For more information, see Certain types that inherit from IDictionary are blocked from deserialization (KB5043462).
-
You might experience an issue in which SharePoint workflows can't be published because the unauthorized type is blocked. This issue also generates event tag "c42q0" in SharePoint Unified Logging System (ULS) logs.
To work around this issue, register the safe types in the Web.config file. You can look for event tag "c42q0" in ULS logs to find the blocked type. If the type and assembly are safe, add the type to the authorized list in the Web.config file. For example:<System.Workflow.ComponentModel.WorkflowCompiler> <authorizedTypes> <targetFx version="v4.0"> <authorizedType Assembly="Microsoft.SharePoint.WorkflowActions, Version=16.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null" Namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint.WorkflowActions.WithKey" TypeName="*" Authorized="True" /> </targetFx> </authorizedTypes>
