Microsoft: fix security issue with non-security update. Instructions point to non-exi - harlan4096 - 25 February 19

Can things get any worse than this? Microsoft published a security advisory yesterday -- ADV190005 | Guidance to adjust HTTP/2 SETTINGS frames -- which affects Windows Server running Internet Information Services (IIS).
The security issue could be abused to cause CPU usage to increase to 100% until the malicious HTTP/2 "connections are killed by IIS".
The advisory recommends to administrators that they install the February non-security updates for the version of Windows 10 that is installed on an affected device. Microsoft released cumulative updates for all supported versions of Windows 10 on the February Patch Tuesday that included security updates.
The updates that Microsoft refers to in the advisory were released this week for Windows 10 version 1607 to 1803 (the update for Windows 10 version 1809 is being tested in the Release Preview ring currently) and the related Windows Server versions.
