Update summary
Fixes 51 CVEs. Most severe CVSS 8.8 (High). EPSS exploit probability up to 23%. Among the top 25% of tracked Microsoft updates by EPSS exploit probability.
A newer security update for Windows Server 2008 for 32-bit Systems Service Pack 2 has shipped since this one: KB5073697 (2026-01-13).

KB5062618 is the August 12, 2025 rollup for Windows 10 Version 1809 and Windows Server 2019, closing 51 vulnerabilities including CVE-2025-55230 and CVE-2025-48824. The top issue rates High at CVSS 8.8, but none of these CVEs are in the CISA KEV catalog or tied to known ransomware, and the highest EPSS exploitation probability sits at 14 percent. This matters most for the aging 1809 and Server 2019 fleet that many organizations still run for legacy application compatibility.
