DATE: Mon, 17 Jul 2006 15:57:59 +0200
Biztonsági hibát találtak Microsoft Office Excel-ben. A sikeres exploithoz
rosszindulatú .XLS file megnyitása szükséges. Mikor az Excel deformált
rekorodot talál, megpróbálja újjáépíteni a sérült meta-data-t. Ebben az
újjáépítő folyamatban lehetséges kritikus data offset, ami végül kód
futtatásához vezethet.
A frissítés elérhető.

-- Vulnerability Details:
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on
vulnerable installations of Microsoft Office. Exploitation requires
that the attacker coerce the target into opening a malicious .XLS
file.
The specific flaw exists within the rebuilding of malformed cell
comments. When Excel encounters a malformed record it attempts to
rebuild the broken meta-data. A flaw in this rebuilding process allows
the user to specify critical data offsets eventually leading to code
execution with the credentials of the current user.
-- Vendor Response:
Microsoft has issued an update to correct this vulnerability. More
