Descriptions
Microsoft Word 2003 SP3 and 2007 SP2 and SP3, Office 2008 and 2011 for Mac, and Office Compatibility Pack SP2 and SP3 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via crafted RTF data, aka "RTF Mismatch Vulnerability."
Microsoft Word 2003 SP3 y 2007 SP2 y SP3, Office 2008 y 2011 para Mac, y Office Compatibility Pack SP2 y SP3 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria) mediante datos RTF manipulados, también conocido como "Vulnerabilidad RTF"
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Office. 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 handling of RTF files. The code responsible for lexing control words from the input file does not properly validate that all objects are properly defined. By removing terminating values within an RTF file an attacker can cause the program to re-use a freed object. Combined with basic memory layout control an attacker can abuse this situation to achieve code execution under the context of the user running the application.
