Microsoft Excel 2007 SP3, Excel 2010 SP2, Excel 2013 SP1, Excel 2013 RT SP1, Excel 2016, Excel for Mac 2011, Excel 2016 for Mac, Office Compatibility Pack SP3, and Excel Viewer allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Office document, aka "Microsoft Office Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

The remote Windows host has a version of Microsoft Office, Word, Word Viewer, Excel, Excel Viewer, PowerPoint, Visio, SharePoint, Visual Basic, or Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities exist in     Microsoft SharePoint due to improper enforcement of     Access Control Policy (ACP) configuration settings. A     remote attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities, via a     specially crafted request, to execute arbitrary script     code in a user's browser session. (CVE-2015-6117,     CVE-2016-0011)

  - Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist in     Microsoft Office due to improper handling of objects in     memory. An attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities by     convincing a user to open a specially crafted file in     Microsoft Office, resulting in execution of arbitrary     code in the context of the current user. (CVE-2016-0010,     CVE-2016-0035)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in     Microsoft Office due to a failure to use the Address     Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) security feature. An     attacker can exploit this to predict memory offsets of     specific instructions in a call stack. (CVE-2016-0012)

The version of Microsoft Office installed on the remote Mac OS X host is affected by multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities due to improper handling of objects in memory. A remote attacker can exploit these vulnerabilities by convincing a user to open a specially crafted file in Microsoft Office, resulting in execution of arbitrary code in the context of the current user.
