Description A remote code execution issue exists due to an integer underflow in Microsoft Office. This allows attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted document. Exploitation requires a user to open a specially crafted Office file with an affected version of Microsoft Office software. Successful exploitation could grant an attacker the same user rights as the current user, potentially leading to complete control of the affected system if the user has administrative rights.

For Microsoft Office 2013 SP1, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Office 2013 RT SP1, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk.
