Detail
| Revision Note: V2.0 (October 27, 2009): Bulletin revised to communicate the rerelease of the update for Microsoft Office 2003 Service Pack 3 and Microsoft Office 2003 Web Components Service Pack 3 to fix a detection issue. This is a detection change only; there were no changes to the binaries. Customers who have successfully updated their systems do not need to reinstall this update.Summary: This security update resolves several privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office Web Components that could allow remote code execution if a user viewed a specially crafted Web page. An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the local user. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. |
