Usually, when an update is published, it is made available through Windows Update as well as standalone installers. However, these updates are only available to download through Microsoft Catalog, which means standalone installers only. You can also download them from the direct download links shared below. Furthermore, since these updates address the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) connections, we would suggest that you install them right away. Let us take a close look at these releases.

New in KB5020387 And KB5020435

As we mentioned earlier, both of these updates address the same issue in Windows 10 and 11. Microsoft has addressed an issue that might affect some types of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) connections. These connections may have had handshake failures before the fix. For developers, the affected connections are likely to receive one or more records followed by a partial record with a size of fewer than 5 bytes within a single input buffer. If the connection fails, a developer’s app will receive the error, “SEC_E_ILLEGAL_MESSAGE.” No other improvements or fixes have been made to the operating systems.

Known Issues

In the case of KB5020387 for Windows 11, Microsoft is not currently aware of any issues. However, there are a few with KB5020435 for Windows 10:

An issue with the standalone (clean) installation of Windows 10 with this update is causing Microsoft Edge Legacy to be removed. However, it is not being replaced by the new Chromium-based Edge. This occurs only when Windows has a custom offline media or an ISO image installed that does not include the 29th March 2021 SSU update. Microsoft suggests that you either install the March SSU update through slipstreaming or simply update an existing OS through Windows Update, so you will not be facing this issue. Alternatively, you can simply download and install the new Microsoft Edge if you have already encountered this problem.There may be some audio-related issues after installing this update, but Microsoft has already suggested a workaround for it.
