The updates patch flaws in Microsoft Windows, Edge Browser, Internet Explorer, Office, ChakraCore, .NET Framework, Exchange Server, Microsoft SQL Server and Visual Studio.
Two of these vulnerabilities patched by the tech giant is listed as publicly known and being exploited in the wild at the time of release.
According to the advisory released by Microsoft, all 19 critical-rated vulnerabilities lead to remote code execution (RCE), some of which could eventually allow attackers to take control of the affected system if exploited successfully.
Besides this, Microsoft has also addressed 39 important flaws, one moderate and one low in severity.
