| Detailed Description |
The hotfix (MS08-055, 955047) for 'Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office' has not been applied.
The remote host is running a version of Microsoft Office which is subject to various flaws which may allow arbitrary code
to be run.
An attacker may use this to execute arbitrary code on this host.
To succeed, the attacker would have to send a rogue file to
a user of the remote computer and have it open it with Microsoft Office.
* 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.
