Microsoft has released emergency patches to fix an apparent reporting error in Active Directory (AD) Group Policy, which allows administrators to manage and configure user and computer settings in Windows.
The company reported in a Microsoft 365 message center update that the status of local audit logon/logoff policies might be incorrectly displayed, with audits showing as not occurring when they were actually running in the background.
The issue is occurring across various Windows and Windows Server versions, including Windows 11. The out-of-band (OOB) updates only need to be installed by impacted organizations, and can be downloaded and installed from the Microsoft Update Catalog.
