Summary
The documentation page exclusively lists updates for Azure Guest OS versions that are all based on Windows Server operating systems. All update references are to Microsoft KB articles, Windows cumulative updates, .NET Framework, Internet Explorer, and Windows-specific components. There are no mentions of Linux distributions, Linux kernel updates, or Linux-specific security advisories. No Linux tools, commands, or update mechanisms are referenced. The documentation is entirely Windows-centric, with no parity or guidance for Linux-based Azure VMs.
Recommendations
- Clearly state in the introduction that this page covers only Windows-based Azure Guest OS images, and provide a link to equivalent documentation for Linux-based Azure images.
- If Azure Guest OS for Linux is supported, add parallel tables or sections listing Linux distribution versions, kernel updates, and relevant CVEs or security advisories.
- Reference Linux update mechanisms (e.g., apt, yum, zypper) and provide guidance on how to check for and apply updates on Linux-based Azure VMs.
- Include links to Azure documentation on Linux VM image lifecycle, update cadence, and security patching.
- If Linux is not supported in this context, make this explicit to avoid confusion for cross-platform users.
