Microsoft Releases OS X Office 2004 Update By Mistake

Via SANS ISC -

Microsoft accidentally released an update named 11.3.1 for Office 2004 (the Apple Mac version) today.

It did contain an unspecified security fix and stability improvements. After asking what it fixed we got the reply it was actually a pre-release that was made available through auto-update.

The wasn't intended to be released and hence has been pulled. See the MSRC blog for more details.

Microsoft is also recommending to uninstall the patches, although to be honest I've no idea how to actually do that.
