A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way Microsoft Office software parses specially crafted email messages, aka "Microsoft Office 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.
