According to "zdnet", after reports of content damage to Exchange Server 2013 after deployment, Microsoft has withdrawn the MS13-061 update for Exchange Server released this past Tuesday.
The company received reports of problems with Exchange Server 2013 installations from customers. The problem does not affect Exchange Server 2007 or 2010 and Microsoft says that customers of those versions can proceed with testing and deployment.
