Microsoft released nine (9) bulletins. Six (6) bulletins are identified as Critical and the remaining three (3) are rated Important in severity.

The updates address vulnerabilities in Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Edge, Internet Explorer, Microsoft .NET Framework, Microsoft Office, Visual Basic and Microsoft Silverlight.

Details about the 25 CVEs can be found in the Microsoft Security Bulletin for January 2016. If you are prioritizing updates, the most critical appears to be MS16-05 which indicates "more severe of the vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user visits a malicious website". Attention is also directed to MS16-001 which has the last updates for versions of Internet Explorer that have reached end of support.
