Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office 2003 SP3 and 2007 SP3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted WordPerfect document (.wpd) file, aka "Word Heap Overwrite 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.
