The Microsoft Office Products are missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  • A security feature bypass vulnerability exists. An attacker can exploit this and bypass the security feature and perform unauthorized actions compromising the integrity of the system/application.
    (CVE-2023-36767)

  • A session spoofing vulnerability exists. An attacker can exploit this to perform actions with the privileges of another user. (CVE-2023-41764)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
