General Sentiment

The update addresses significant security concerns with multiple critical vulnerabilities, making it an important installation for security posture. However, the patch introduces two documented issues affecting WPF applications, particularly those handling fonts and XPS documents, which may impact production environments. Microsoft acknowledges these issues and indicates resolution in subsequent updates, suggesting a measured approach to deployment timing.

Known Issues

  • WPF applications may fail with System.IO.FileFormatException when printing or generating PDF/XPS content using certain fonts including Calibri; resolved in September 2026 update
  • WPF applications printing from in-memory XPS documents registered with System.IO.Packaging.PackageStore may fail with System.IO.FileFormatException when using pack scheme URIs; status is investigating
