medium Nessus Plugin ID 22033

Synopsis

Arbitrary code can be executed on the remote host through the Microsoft Office filters.

Description

The remote host is running a version of some Microsoft Office filters that are subject to various flaws which could allow arbitrary code to be run.

An attacker could use these 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 import it with Microsoft Office.

Solution

Microsoft has released a set of patches for Office 2000, XP and 2003.
