Microsoft Office Publisher 2007 SP1 does not properly calculate object handler data for Publisher files, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted file in a legacy format that triggers memory corruption, aka "Pointer Dereference Vulnerability."
The product constructs all or part of a code segment using externally-influenced input from an upstream component, but it does not neutralize or incorrectly neutralizes special elements that could modify the syntax or behavior of the intended code segment.
