MS16-155
 
 - Title: Security Update for .NET Framework (3205640)
 - https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms16-155.aspx
 - Reason for Revision: Revised bulletin to announce that Security
   and Quality Rollup updates 3210142 and 3205402 have been
   rereleased with a detection change for WSUS customers that
   removes a supersedence relationship between these and previously
   released October Security-Only updates 3188736 and 3188730, 
   respectively. These are detection changes only. There were no
   changes to the update files. Customers who have already
   successfully installed any of these updates do not need to take
   any action. For more information, see the Microsoft Knowledge
   Base article for the respective update.
 
   In addition, revised bulletin to announce that update 3210142 is
   available for Windows Server 2008 for Itanium-based Systems 
   Service Pack 2, and that update 3205402 is available for Windows
   Server 2008 R2 for Itanium-based Systems Service Pack 1. Customers
   should apply the applicable updates to be protected from the
   vulnerabilities discussed in this bulletin. The majority of
   customers have automatic updating enabled and will not need to
   take any action because the updates will be downloaded and
   installed automatically.
