Microsoft updates several Surface devices with audio and security improvements

Microsoft has released new firmware updates for four of its Surface PCs. Patches are available for the now-discontinued (still supported) Surface Studio 2+, Surface Pro 9 with Intel processors, Surface Laptop Go 3, and Surface Laptop 4 with Intel processors.

The Surface Studio 2+ received patches for security vulnerabilities related to several Nvidia advisories, namely CVE-2024-0117, CVE-2024-0118, CVE-2024-0119, CVE-2024-0120, CVE-2024-0121, and CVE-2024-0126. Also, the updated fixed audio failures and unexpected disruptions when playing or recording.

The Surface Pro 9 with Intel processors received the same audio patch, plus unnamed security improvements that "enhance the overall security posture of the devices, protecting customers from potential threats."

If you have a Surface Laptop Go 3, you will also receive various under-the-hood fixes that reduce the likelihood of encountering a system crash and blue screen of death. Finally, the Surface Laptop 4 with Intel processors received only security fixes.

As usual, you can download the latest firmware update for your Surface device by heading to Settings > Windows Update or the official Surface Support website (here for the Surface Studio 2+, here for the Surface Pro 9, here for the Surface Laptop Go 3, and here for the Surface Laptop 4). Keep in mind that firmware updates are non-uninstallable, so back up important data before proceeding.
