NASL family Windows : Microsoft Bulletins NASL id SMB_NT_MS19_JAN_OFFICE.NASL description The Microsoft Office Products are missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities: - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that the MSHTML engine improperly validates input. An attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. (CVE-2019-0541) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when Microsoft Outlook improperly handles certain types of messages. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gather information about the victim. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted email to the victim. The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting the way Microsoft Outlook handles these types of messages. (CVE-2019-0559) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when Microsoft Office improperly discloses the contents of its memory. An attacker who exploited the vulnerability could use the information to compromise the users computer or data. (CVE-2019-0560) - An information disclosure vulnerability exists when Microsoft Office improperly discloses the contents of its memory. An attacker who exploited the vulnerability could use the information to compromise the users computer or data. (CVE-2019-0560) - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Microsoft Word 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.
