The Microsoft Publisher Products are missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerability :

  • An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Microsoft Publisher fails to utilize features that lock down the Local Machine zone when instantiating OLE objects. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could force arbitrary code to be executed in the Local Machine zone. (CVE-2018-8245)
