Windows Uniscribe in Microsoft Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1; Windows 7 SP1; Office 2007 SP3; Office 2010 SP2; Word Viewer; Office for Mac 2011 and 2016; Skype for Business 2016; Lync 2013 SP1; Lync 2010; Lync 2010 Attendee; and Live Meeting 2007 Add-in and Console allows an attacker to execute code remotely via a specially crafted website or a specially crafted document or email attachment, aka "Microsoft Graphics Component Remote Code Execution."

The Microsoft Office Online Server or Microsoft Office Web Apps installation on the remote host is missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in     Microsoft Office software when it fails to properly     handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully     exploited the vulnerability could use a specially     crafted file to perform actions in the security context     of the current user. For example, the file could then     take actions on behalf of the logged-on user with the     same permissions as the current user. Exploitation of     this vulnerability requires that a user open a specially     crafted file with an affected version of Microsoft     Office software. In an email attack scenario, an     attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending the     specially crafted file to the user and convincing the     user to open the file. In a web-based attack scenario,     an attacker could host a website (or leverage a     compromised website that accepts or hosts user-provided     content) that contains a specially crafted file that is     designed to exploit the vulnerability. However, an     attacker would have no way to force the user to visit     the website. Instead, an attacker would have to convince     the user to click a link, typically by way of an     enticement in an email or Instant Messenger message, and     then convince the user to open the specially crafted     file. The security update addresses the vulnerability by     correcting how Microsoft Office handles files in memory.
    (CVE-2017-8631)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in     Microsoft Office software when the software fails to     properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who     successfully exploited the vulnerability could run     arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If     the current user is logged on with administrative user     rights, an attacker could take control of the affected     system. An attacker could then install programs; view,     change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full     user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have     fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted     than users who operate with administrative user rights.
    Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that a user     open a specially crafted file with an affected version     of Microsoft Office software. In an email attack     scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by     sending the specially crafted file to the user and     convincing the user to open the file. In a web-based     attack scenario, an attacker could host a website (or     leverage a compromised website that accepts or hosts     user-provided content) that contains a specially crafted     file designed to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker     would have no way to force users to visit the website.
    Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to     click a link, typically by way of an enticement in an     email or instant message, and then convince them to open     the specially crafted file. Note that the Preview Pane     is not an attack vector for this vulnerability. The     security update addresses the vulnerability by     correcting how Office handles objects in memory.
    (CVE-2017-8742, CVE-2017-8743)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists due to the     way Windows Uniscribe handles objects in memory. An     attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability     could take control of the affected system. An attacker     could then install programs; view, change, or delete     data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
    Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user     rights on the system could be less impacted than users     who operate with administrative user rights. There are     multiple ways an attacker could exploit this     vulnerability: In a web-based attack scenario, an     attacker could host a specially crafted website designed     to exploit this vulnerability and then convince a user     to view the website. An attacker would have no way to     force users to view the attacker-controlled content.
    Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to     take action, typically by getting them to click a link     in an email or instant message that takes users to the     attacker's website, or by opening an attachment sent     through email. In a file-sharing attack scenario, an     attacker could provide a specially crafted document file     designed to exploit this vulnerability and then convince     a user to open the document file.The security update     addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Windows     Uniscribe handles objects in memory. (CVE-2017-8696)

The remote Windows host is missing multiple security updates released on 2017/09/12. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when     Windows Hyper-V on a host operating system fails to     properly validate input from an authenticated user on a     guest operating system. To exploit the vulnerability, an     attacker on a guest operating system could run a     specially crafted application that could cause the     Hyper-V host operating system to disclose memory     information. An attacker who successfully exploited the     vulnerability could gain access to information on the     Hyper-V host operating system. The security update     addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Hyper-V     validates guest operating system user input.
    (CVE-2017-8707)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     Windows System Information Console when it improperly     parses XML input containing a reference to an external     entity. An attacker who successfully exploited this     vulnerability could read arbitrary files via an XML     external entity (XXE) declaration. To exploit the     vulnerability, an attacker could create a file     containing specially crafted XML content and convince an     authenticated user to open the file. The update     addresses the vulnerability by modifying the way that     the Windows System Information Console parses XML input.
    (CVE-2017-8710)

  - An Information disclosure vulnerability exists in     Windows kernel that could allow an attacker to retrieve     information that could lead to a Kernel Address Space     Layout Randomization (KASLR) bypass. An attacker who     successfully exploited this vulnerability could retrieve     the memory address of a kernel object. To exploit this     vulnerability, an attacker would have to log on to an     affected system and run a specially crafted application.
    The security update addresses the vulnerability by     correcting how the Windows kernel handles memory     addresses. (CVE-2017-8687)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the     Microsoft Windows Graphics Component improperly handles     objects in memory. An attacker who successfully     exploited the vulnerability could obtain information to     further compromise the users system. To exploit this     vulnerability, an attacker would have to log on to an     affected system and run a specially crafted application.
    The vulnerability would not allow an attacker to execute     code or to elevate user rights directly, but it could be     used to obtain information that could be used to try to     further compromise the affected system. The update     addresses the vulnerability by correcting the way in     which the Windows Graphics Component handles objects in     memory. (CVE-2017-8683)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when the     Windows font library improperly handles specially     crafted embedded fonts. An attacker who successfully     exploited this vulnerability could take control of the     affected system. An attacker could then install     programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new     accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are     configured to have fewer user rights on the system could     be less impacted than users who operate with     administrative user rights. There are multiple ways an     attacker could exploit this vulnerability. In a web-     based attack scenario, an attacker could host a     specially crafted website that is designed to exploit     this vulnerability and then convince a user to view the     website. An attacker would have no way to force users to     view the attacker-controlled content. Instead, an     attacker would have to convince users to take action,     typically by getting them to click a link in an email     message or in an Instant Messenger message that takes     users to the attacker's website, or by opening an     attachment sent through email. In a file sharing attack     scenario, an attacker could provide a specially crafted     document file that is designed to exploit this     vulnerability, and then convince a user to open the     document file. The security update addresses the     vulnerabilities by correcting how the Windows font     library handles embedded fonts. (CVE-2017-8682)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists when     Windows Shell does not properly validate file copy     destinations. An attacker who successfully exploited the     vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the context of     the current user. If the current user is logged on with     administrative user rights, an attacker could take     control of the affected system. An attacker could then     install programs; view, change, or delete data; or     create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose     accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the     system could be less impacted than users who operate     with administrative user rights. To exploit the     vulnerability, a user must open a specially crafted     file. In an email attack scenario, an attacker could     exploit the vulnerability by sending the specially     crafted file to the user and then convincing the user to     open the file. In a web-based attack scenario, an     attacker could host a website (or leverage a compromised     website that accepts or hosts user-provided content)     that contains a specially crafted file designed to     exploit the vulnerability. An attacker would have no way     to force a user to visit the website. Instead, an     attacker would have to convince a user to click a link,     typically by way of an enticement in an email or Instant     Messenger message, and then convince the user to open     the specially crafted file. The security update     addresses the vulnerability by helping to ensure that     Windows Shell validates file copy destinations.
    (CVE-2017-8699)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when the     Windows kernel fails to properly initialize a memory     address, allowing an attacker to retrieve information     that could lead to a Kernel Address Space Layout     Randomization (KASLR) bypass. An attacker who     successfully exploited this vulnerability could retrieve     the base address of the kernel driver from a compromised     process. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker     would have to log on to an affected system and run a     specially crafted application. The security update     addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the     Windows kernel handles memory addresses. (CVE-2017-8708)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when     Windows Uniscribe improperly discloses the contents of     its memory. An attacker who successfully exploited the     vulnerability could obtain information to further     compromise the users system.

In a file-sharing attack scenario, an     attacker could provide a specially crafted document file     designed to exploit this vulnerability and then convince     a user to open the document file.The security update     addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Windows     Uniscribe handles objects in memory. (CVE-2017-8696)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in     Microsoft Office software when the software fails to     properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who     successfully exploited the vulnerability could run     arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If     the current user is logged on with administrative user     rights, an attacker could take control of the affected     system. An attacker could then install programs; view,     change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full     user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have     fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted     than users who operate with administrative user rights.
    Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that a user     open a specially crafted file with an affected version     of Microsoft Office software. In an email attack     scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by     sending the specially crafted file to the user and     convincing the user to open the file. In a web-based     attack scenario, an attacker could host a website (or     leverage a compromised website that accepts or hosts     user-provided content) that contains a specially crafted     file designed to exploit the vulnerability. An attacker     would have no way to force users to visit the website.
    Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to     click a link, typically by way of an enticement in an     email or instant message, and then convince them to open     the specially crafted file. Note that the Preview Pane     is not an attack vector for this vulnerability. The     security update addresses the vulnerability by     correcting how Office handles objects in memory.
    (CVE-2017-8742)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     way that the Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI)     handles objects in memory, allowing an attacker to     retrieve information from a targeted system.
