Descriptions

Integer underflow in Microsoft PowerPoint 2002 SP3 and 2003 SP3, PowerPoint Viewer SP2, and Office 2004 for Mac allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PowerPoint document, aka "PowerPoint Integer Underflow Causes Heap Corruption Vulnerability."

Desbordamiento de entero en Microsoft PowerPoint 2002 SP3 y 2003 SP3, PowerPoint Viewer SP2, y Office 2004 para Mac permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección a través de un documento PowerPoint manipulado, también conocida como "Vulnerabilidad de desbordamiento de entero en PowerPoint causeante de corrupción de pila"

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Office Powerpoint 2003. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the application trusting a value defined within a file. This value will have some arithmetic performed on it, and subsequently be used as a counter for a processing loop. By modifying this value, an attacker can reliably corrupt memory. Successful exploitation will lead to code execution under the context of the application.
