Exploitation of these vulnerabilities<br \/>\n   could allow a remote, unauthenticated attacker to execute arbitrary<br \/>\n   code or cause a denial of service on a vulnerable system.<\/p>\n<p>I. Description<\/p>\n<p>   Microsoft Security Bulletin Summary for March 2006 addresses<br \/>\n   vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office and Excel. Further information is<br \/>\n   available in the following US-CERT Vulnerability Notes:<\/p>\n<p>   VU#339878 &#8211; Microsoft Excel malformed parsing format file memory<br \/>\n   corruption vulnerability <\/p>\n<p>   Microsoft Excel contains a memory corruption vulnerability. This<br \/>\n   vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on<br \/>\n   a vulnerable system.<br \/>\n   (CVE-2006-0028)<\/p>\n<p>   VU#104302 &#8211; Microsoft Excel malformed record memory corruption<br \/>\n   vulnerability <\/p>\n<p>   Microsoft Excel fails to properly validate records. This vulnerability<br \/>\n   may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on a vulnerable<br \/>\n   system.<br \/>\n   (CVE-2006-0031)<\/p>\n<p>   VU#123222 &#8211; Microsoft Excel malformed graphic memory corruption<br \/>\n   vulnerability <\/p>\n<p>   Microsoft Excel fails to properly validate graphics. This<br \/>\n   vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on<br \/>\n   a vulnerable system.<br \/>\n   (CVE-2006-0030)<\/p>\n<p>   VU#235774 &#8211; Microsoft Excel malformed description memory corruption<br \/>\n   vulnerability <\/p>\n<p>   Microsoft Excel fails to properly validate the description field. This<br \/>\n   vulnerability may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on<br \/>\n   a vulnerable system.<br \/>\n   (CVE-2006-0029)<\/p>\n<p>   VU#642428 &#8211; Microsoft Excel fails to properly perform range validation<br \/>\n   when parsing document files <\/p>\n<p>   Microsoft Excel contains an error in range validation, which may allow<br \/>\n   a remote unauthenticated, attacker to execute arbitrary code on a<br \/>\n   vulnerable system.<br \/>\n   (CVE-2005-4131)<\/p>\n<p>   VU#682820 &#8211; Microsoft Office routing slip buffer overflow <\/p>\n<p>   Microsoft Office contains a buffer overflow in the parsing of routing<br \/>\n   slips, which may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on a<br \/>\n   vulnerable system.<br \/>\n   (CVE-2006-0009)<\/p>\n<p>II. Impact<\/p>\n<p>   A remote, unauthenticated attacker could execute arbitrary code with<br \/>\n   the privileges of the user. If the user is logged on with<br \/>\n   administrative privileges, the attacker could take complete control of<br \/>\n   an affected system. An attacker may also be able to cause a denial of<br \/>\n   service.<\/p>\n<p>III. Solution<\/p>\n<p>Apply Updates<\/p>\n<p>   Microsoft has provided the updates for these vulnerabilities in the<br \/>\n   Security Bulletins and on the Microsoft Update site.<\/p>\n<p>Workarounds<\/p>\n<p>   Please see the following US-CERT Vulnerability Notes for workarounds.<\/p>\n<p>Appendix A.
