The Microsoft Access Products are missing a security update.

Description

The Microsoft Access Products are missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by multiple information disclosure vulnerabilities. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit these, via an out-of-bounds read, to disclose potentially sensitive information.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Microsoft has released KB5002720 to address this issue.
