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

  - Access of resource using incompatible type ('type confusion') in Microsoft Office Excel allows an
    unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network. (CVE-2026-65807)

  - Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code
    locally. (CVE-2026-68794, CVE-2026-68796, CVE-2026-68798, CVE-2026-68800, CVE-2026-68801, CVE-2026-68805,
    CVE-2026-68807, CVE-2026-68812, CVE-2026-68815)

  - Out-of-bounds read in Microsoft Office Excel allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information over a
    network. (CVE-2026-70327, CVE-2026-70328)

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