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

  - Integer underflow (wrap or wraparound) in Microsoft Office Excel allows an unauthorized attacker to
    execute code locally. (CVE-2026-44817, CVE-2026-44818, CVE-2026-44820, CVE-2026-44823, CVE-2026-45469)

  - Out-of-bounds read in Microsoft Office Excel allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information
    over a network. (CVE-2026-44822, CVE-2026-45455)

  - Protection mechanism failure in Microsoft Office Excel allows an unauthorized attacker to bypass a
    security feature locally. (CVE-2026-45459)
