Microsoft Office 2016 and Office 2019 on Mac OS X are vulnerable to remote code execution due to flaws in handling objects in memory, allowing arbitrary code execution in the context of the current user. It is recommended to upgrade to version 16.16.20 for Office 2016 and version 16.35 for Office 2019
