Microsoft Word 2007 Service Pack 3, Microsoft Word 2010 Service Pack 2, Microsoft Office 2010 Service Pack 2, and Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack Service Pack 3 allow an attacker to run arbitrary code in the context of the current user by failing to properly handle objects in memory, aka "Microsoft Word Memory Corruption 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.
