Buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Publisher 2002 SP3, 2003 SP3, and 2007 SP1 and SP2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Publisher file, aka "Microsoft Office Publisher File Conversion TextBox Processing Buffer Overflow Vulnerability."
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
