GuestNot to deny those issues, but giving the there are some sensible things patched this month (like the TCP/IP RCE one) I rather apply the updates sooner this month. The nearly 1-month wait is out of the table for me, it would be a week at most. Also, I specially recommend people with Win7 ESU to do it just now.

AskWoody MVPWin7 ESU patched with SMQR KB4601347 has been running fine since 9th Feb here. No error logs whatsoever in Event Viewer, SFC no violations, no telemetry re-introduction, local printer works fine if that is any help.
I’d agree on the TCP/IP point of view, which is why I took the plunge immediately after reading the patch documentation and suffer any consequences later.
More info on Born City
excerpt:The two critical RCE vulnerabilities (CVE-2021-24074, CVE-2021-24094) are classified as complex and difficult to exploit. Microsoft believes that attackers could rather exploit the DoS vulnerability (CVE-2021-24086), which is rated as important, to create DoS exploits. Attackers could then trigger BlueScreens on the Windows system via network packets.

Is there a Windows OS system without a firewall between the PC and a router/network ?

AskWoody Lounger“Windows server 2003 will probably fail.”
Regarding the above statement, our 2016 DCs are patched up to January 2021, we have a Win2003 R2 member server joined to the domain. I have not seen a single error for IDs 5827, 5828, 5829 as of today and going back to last Sept.
Does this mean our 2003 server will not be impacted by the DC enforcement?
