Detailed Description |
The hotfix (MS08-017, 933103) for 'Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office Web Components' has not been applied. Microsoft Windows could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the affected system, caused by multiple vulnerabilities in the Microsoft Office Web Components. By constructing a specially crafted Web page, a remote attacker could potentially execute arbitrary code if a user visited a Web site or viewed a specially crafted e-mail message. An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could take complete control of an affected system.
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of these condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
