Microsoft Office 2010 SP2, 2013 SP1, and 2016, Microsoft Office 2016 Click-to-Run Microsoft Office 2016 for Mac, Microsoft Office Web Apps 2010 SP2, Microsoft Office Web Apps 2013 SP1, Microsoft SharePoint Enterprise Server 2013 SP1, Microsoft SharePoint Enterprise Server 2016, Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 SP2, Microsoft Word 2010 SP2, Word 2013 SP1 and Microsoft Word 2016 allow an information disclosure vulnerability due to how variables are initialized, aka "Microsoft Office Information Disclosure Vulnerability".

The Microsoft Word Products are missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when     Microsoft Office software reads out of bound memory due     to an uninitialized variable, which could disclose the     contents of memory. An attacker who successfully     exploited the vulnerability could view out of bound     memory. Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that     a user open a specially crafted file with an affected     version of Microsoft Office software. The security     update addresses the vulnerability by properly     initializing the affected variable. (CVE-2018-0919)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in     Microsoft Office software when the Office 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.  (CVE-2018-0922)

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 :

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when     Microsoft Office software reads out of bound memory due     to an uninitialized variable, which could disclose the     contents of memory. An attacker who successfully     exploited the vulnerability could view out of bound     memory. Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that     a user open a specially crafted file with an affected     version of Microsoft Office software. The security     update addresses the vulnerability by properly     initializing the affected variable. (CVE-2018-0919)

The Microsoft SharePoint Server or Microsoft Project Server installation on the remote host is missing security updates.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when     Microsoft Office software reads out of bound memory due     to an uninitialized variable, which could disclose the     contents of memory. An attacker who successfully     exploited the vulnerability could view out of bound     memory.

An attacker could then install programs; view,     change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full     user rights.  (CVE-2018-0922)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when     Microsoft SharePoint Server does not properly verify     tenant permissions. An authenticated attacker could     exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted     request to an affected SharePoint server. The attacker     who successfully exploited the vulnerability could     elevate permissions such that they gain full rights to     the affected tenant. These attacks could allow the     attacker to read content that the attacker is not     authorized to read, change permissions, and edit or     delete content. The security update addresses the     vulnerability by helping to ensure that SharePoint     Server properly checks tenant permissions.
    (CVE-2018-0947)

  - An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when     Microsoft SharePoint Server does not properly sanitize a     specially crafted web request to an affected SharePoint     server. An authenticated attacker could exploit the     vulnerability by sending a specially crafted request to     an affected SharePoint server. The attacker who     successfully exploited the vulnerability could then     perform cross-site scripting attacks on affected systems     and run script in the security context of the current     user. These attacks could allow the attacker to read     content that the attacker is not authorized to read, use     the victim's identity to take actions on the SharePoint     site on behalf of the user, such as change permissions     and delete content, and inject malicious content in the     browser of the user. The security update addresses the     vulnerability by helping to ensure that SharePoint     Server properly sanitizes web requests. (CVE-2018-0909,     CVE-2018-0910, CVE-2018-0911, CVE-2018-0912,     CVE-2018-0913, CVE-2018-0914, CVE-2018-0915,     CVE-2018-0916, CVE-2018-0917, CVE-2018-0921,     CVE-2018-0923, CVE-2018-0944)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when     Microsoft Office software reads out of bound memory due     to an uninitialized variable, which could disclose the     contents of memory.

The Microsoft Office 2016 application installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities:

  - A security feature bypass vulnerability exists in Microsoft Office     software by not enforcing macro settings on an Excel document. The     security feature bypass by itself does not allow arbitrary code     execution. To successfully exploit the vulnerability, an attacker     would have to embed a control in an Excel worksheet that specifies     a macro should be run. To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker     would have to convince a user to open a specially crafted file     with an affected version of Microsoft Office software. The     security update addresses the vulnerability by enforcing macro     settings on Excel documents. (CVE-2018-0907)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when Microsoft     Office software reads out of bound memory due to an uninitialized     variable, which could disclose the contents of memory. An attacker     who successfully exploited the vulnerability could view out of     bound memory. (CVE-2018-0919(
