The remote Windows host is running a version of Microsoft Excel that is affected by the following vulnerabilities :
Two memory corruption vulnerabilities exist due to the way the application handles objects in memory when parsing Office files. (CVE-2013-1315 / CVE-2013-3158)
An information disclosure vulnerability exists due to the way the application parses XML files containing external entities. (CVE-2013-3159)
If an attacker can trick a user on the affected host into opening a specially crafted Excel file, it may be possible to leverage these issues to read arbitrary files on the target system or execute arbitrary code, subject to the userโs privileges.
