Descriptions

Microsoft Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2, and Windows RT Gold and 8.1 allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted OLE object in an Office document, as exploited in the wild with a "Sandworm" attack in June through October 2014, aka "Windows OLE Remote Code Execution Vulnerability."

Microsoft Windows Vista SP2, Windows Server 2008 SP2 y R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 Gold y R2, y Windows RT Gold y 8.1 permiten a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario a través de un objeto OLE manipulado en un documento Office, tal y como fue demostrado activamente con un ataque de 'Sandworm' en junio hasta octubre 2014, también conocido como 'vulnerabilidad de la ejecución de código remoto en Windows OLE.'
