code, can cause memory corruption and other attacks in the context of the
application through crafted Excel file.

Impact Level: System";

- An error in the usage of a specific field used for incrementing an array
index. The application will copy the contents of the specified element into
a statically sized buffer on the stack.
- An error in parsing Office Art record, when parsing an office art object
record, if an error occurs, the application will add a stray reference to an
element which is part of a linked list. When receiving a window message,
the application will proceed to navigate this linked list. This will
access a method from the malformed object which can lead to code execution
under the context of the application.";

General solution options are to upgrade to a newer release, disable respective
features, remove the product or replace the product by another one.";
