Description
The issue is caused by a memory corruption vulnerability that allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Office document. This is due to the Office software failing to properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploits the vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If the current user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker could take control of the affected system, install programs, view, change, or delete data, or create new accounts with full user rights. Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that a user open a specially crafted file with an affected version of Microsoft Office software.
Recommendations
For Microsoft Office 2010 SP2, update to a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
For Microsoft Word 2010 SP2, update to a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
For Microsoft Word for Mac 2011, update to a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
For Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack SP3, update to a newer version that contains a fix for this issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider avoiding the use of affected Microsoft Office software until a patch is available.
Restrict access to specially crafted files to minimize the risk of exploitation.
