| Detailed Description |
The hotfix (MS08-019, 949032) for 'Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Visio' has not been applied. Microsoft Visio 2002 SP2, 2003 SP2 and SP3, and 2007 up to SP1 could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by improper validation of object header data and memory resource allocation when opening Visio files. By constructing a specially crafted Web page containing a malicious Visio file, 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.
