OS Build 20348.1251

IMPORTANT
Because of minimal operations during the holidays and the upcoming Western new year, there won’t be a non-security preview release for the month of December 2022. There will be a monthly security release (known as a “B” release) for December 2022. Normal monthly servicing for both B and non-security preview releases will resume in January 2023.

For information about Windows update terminology, see the article about the types of Windows updates and the monthly quality update types. For an overview of Windows Server 2022, see its update history page.

Improvements

This non-security update includes quality improvements. When you install this KB:

  • It addresses a known issue that might affect Windows Servers that have the Domain Controller (DC) role. They might have Kerberos authentication issues if both of the following are true:

    • You installed the November 8, 2022, or later update on the DC

    • You configured the SupportedEncrytionType key to remove the RC4 cipher at a domain level or on individual accounts

    You might receive Microsoft-Windows-Kerberos-Key-Distribution-Center Event ID 14 errors. These appear in the System section of the Event Log on your DC. The affected events include the text, "the missing key has an ID of 1".

    Note This issue is not an expected part of the security hardening for Netlogon and Kerberos starting with November 2022 security update. You must still follow the guidance in the listed articles.

If you installed earlier updates, only the new updates contained in this package will be downloaded and installed on your device.

Windows Server 2022 servicing stack update - 20348.1066

This update makes quality improvements to the servicing stack, which is the component that installs Windows updates. Servicing stack updates (SSU) ensure that you have a robust and reliable servicing stack so that your devices can receive and install Microsoft updates.

Known issues in this update

Symptom

Workaround

After installing this update, apps that use ODBC connections utilizing the Microsoft ODBC SQL Server Driver (sqlsrv32.dll) to access databases might fail to connect. You might receive an error within the app or you might receive an error from SQL Server, such as "The EMS System encountered a problem" with "Message: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Protocol error in TDS Stream" or "Message: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Unknown token received from SQL Server".

Note for developers Apps affected by this issue might fail to fetch data, for example when using the SQLFetch function. This issue might occur when calling SQLBindCol function before SQLFetch or calling SQLGetData function after SQLFetch and when a value of 0 (zero) is given for the ‘BufferLength’ argument for fixed datatypes larger then 4 bytes (such as SQL_C_FLOAT).

If you are unsure if you are using any affected apps, open any apps which use a database and then open Command Prompt (select Start then type command prompt and select it) and type the following command:  

tasklist /m sqlsrv32.dll

This issue is addressed in KB5022291.

If you want to remove the LCU

To remove the LCU after installing the combined SSU and LCU package, use the DISM/Remove-Package command line option with the LCU package name as the argument. You can find the package name by using this command: DISM /online /get-packages.

Running Windows Update Standalone Installer (wusa.exe) with the /uninstall switch on the combined package will not work because the combined package contains the SSU. You cannot remove the SSU from the system after installation.
