This host is missing an important security update for Microsoft Office Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities (2858300) on Mac OS X. Multiple flaws exist when processing XML data, which can be exploited to disclose the contents of certain local files by sending specially crafted XML data including external entity references. Microsoft Office 2011 on Mac OS X is affected, and successful exploitation will allow remote attackers to corrupt memory and disclose sensitive information
