The Microsoft Office Products are missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, as follows:
A heap buffer overflow. (CVE-2023-27911)
A security feature bypass. (CVE-2023-36767)
A spoofing vulnerability. (CVE-2023-41764)
An elevation of privilege vulnerability. (CVE-2023-36765)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the applicationโs self-reported version number.
