Right after I posted this story, I got a forced patch notification that my desktop needs to be updated immediately.

Whatever it is, it's serious!

Happy to help!

It's a vulnerability in Adobe Type Fonts. Nasty, but easy to mitigate:

We're pretty soon moving to Adobe as a virtual service and that will close those vulnerabilities permanently.
