Overview
This is a Security and Quality Rollup update for .NET Framework 4.6.2, 4.7, 4.7.1, and 4.7.2 targeting Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 SP2. The update is part of Microsoft's regular maintenance and improvement cycle for the .NET Framework components.
It's important to note that this update comes after the end of Extended Security Updates (ESU) support for Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 SP2, which ended on January 10, 2023. Microsoft strongly recommends upgrading to a more recent version of Windows Server.
General Purpose
The primary purpose of this update is to address quality and reliability improvements in the .NET Framework. Specifically, it resolves an issue with printing large numbers of pages that was causing OutOfMemory exceptions in Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications. The update is cumulative, meaning it contains all previously released security improvements and fixes for the targeted .NET Framework versions. This ensures systems remain stable and secure while maintaining compatibility with existing applications.
General Sentiment
The general sentiment towards this update appears to be positive, as it addresses a specific printing-related issue that could impact business operations. The update is straightforward and focuses on quality improvements rather than security fixes. Since Microsoft is not currently aware of any issues with this update, it seems to be a stable and reliable release. However, users should note that this update is being released for systems that are beyond their extended support period, which may raise concerns about long-term sustainability.
