Overview
KB5058405 is a May 2025 cumulative update for Windows 11 versions 22H2 and 23H2. This update includes both security improvements and quality enhancements for the Windows operating system. The update is particularly notable for addressing issues with Windows Update services and implementing improvements to Secure Boot Advanced Targeting (SBAT) for Linux system detection.
General Purpose
The primary purpose of this update is to enhance system security and improve the Windows servicing stack. It addresses an issue that could prevent users from updating to Windows 11 version 24H2 via WSUS, where downloads might fail with error code 0x8024006. The update also includes improvements to SBAT for better detection of Linux systems. Additionally, it incorporates all previous improvements from Windows 11 version 22H2 and includes updates for AI components, though these are only applicable to Windows Copilot+ PCs.
General Sentiment
The general sentiment towards this update appears cautious but positive. While it addresses important security concerns and system update functionality, there are some concerns regarding display issues affecting CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) text rendering in Chromium-based browsers at 96 DPI. However, this issue has a known workaround through display scaling adjustments. The update's inclusion of AI component updates, while limited to specific hardware configurations, indicates Microsoft's continued focus on AI integration in Windows.
Known Issues
- Blurry or unclear CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) text when displayed at 96 DPI (100% scaling) in Chromium-based browsers
- Issue affects text clarity and alignment of CJK characters due to limited pixel density
- Temporary workaround available: Increase display scaling to 125% or 150%
