Microsoft has yet to finish with the delivery process of Windows Vista SP1, and the company is already hammering away at the service pack plugging security holes. According to the Redmond company, Vista SP1 is affected by multiple vulnerabilities that will be addressed with April's security bulletin releases, scheduled to be issued on April 8, 2008. Out of the total of eight security bulletins planned of the coming week, no less than six impact various editions of the Windows operating system, and Vista SP1 did not manage to escape unscathed.

The service pack brings to the table all the hotfixes and security patches issues for Vista since the operating system's availability as well as additional enhancements. But it seems that when it comes down to vulnerabilities Microsoft has missed a few.

According to Microsoft, the company will make available two security bulletins labeled with a maximum severity level of Critical and one deemed Important, all patching holes in Vista SP1. In addition to Windows, Microsoft will also deal with vulnerabilities in Internet Explorer and the Office System.
