\"Edge\"[German<\/a>]On January 10, 2023, Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008\/R2 will receive security updates for the last time and will drop out of support. With this, Microsoft will also discontinue support for Edge on Windows 7 SP1, Windows Server 2008\/R2 and Windows Server 2012\/R2. ACROS Security has announced it will secure the Microsoft Edge browser for at least two years, until January 2025, after the browser is no longer supported by Microsoft on these platforms.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"\"After all, there had been an announcement for some time that ACROS Security would secure Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 for two years beyond the end of support (January 10, 2023) using 0patch micropatches. I reported about this in the blog post Windows 7\/Server 2008 R2 receive 0patch micropatches in 2023 and 2024<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, Microsoft had discontinued support for the Microsoft Edge browser for Windows 7 SP1, Windows Server 2008\/R2 and Windows Server 2012\/R2 as of January 2023 (see Windows 7\/8.1: Google ends support in February 2023, Edge also affected<\/a> and Microsoft Edge: Version 108.0.1462.46; Reactivate Next button; Windows 7\/8.1 support ends in version 110<\/a>). This is especially unpleasant for Windows Server 2012 R2, as that platform will continue to receive security updates until October 2023. Microsoft Edge version 109 (to be deployed next week), will therefore be the last Edge version to run on all these Windows systems, but will no longer receive security patches.<\/p>\n

Now Mitja Kolsek, the founder of ACROS Security informed me a few hours ago that they plan to secure Microsoft Edge even after its support ends on Windows 7 SP1, Windows Server 2008\/R2 and Windows Server 2012\/R2.<\/p>\n

\"Edge<\/a><\/p>\n

Kolsek has made the details public in this blog post<\/a>. The developers of 0patch have decided to provide the critical security patches for Edge version 109, so that it can safely continue to use on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows Server 2012 \/ R2.<\/p>\n

The prerequisite is that the Edge browser has been updated to version 109 on the systems and that the 0patch agent is running on the systems. Whenever critical vulnerabilities are discovered in Edge, 0patch will develop micropatches to close these vulnerabilities and deploy them via the agent. Edge security patches are part of the Pro and Enterprise license<\/a>. So those who already use 0patch on their systems will automatically get Edge micropatches with these licenses at no additional cost.<\/p>\n

Initially, the plan is to support Microsoft Edge 109 until January 2025, when 0patch support for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 will expire. Depending on demand, the developers want to consider a further extension of support.<\/p>\n

The 0Patch solution<\/h2>\n

ACROS Security analyzes vulnerabilities and provides micropatches to close the security holes. The micropatches are loaded into memory at runtime via the 0patch agent and have the effect that the vulnerabilities can no longer be exploited. For notes on how the 0patch agent, which loads the micropatches into memory at an application's runtime, works, see blog posts (such as this one<\/a>).<\/p>\n
