Security readout for executives and security teams
Excel 97 and 2000 could run older Excel Macro Language macros from external text files without warning the user. A malicious file could therefore execute a macro virus in contexts where those legacy Excel versions are still used. Exposure appears limited to environments that still run Excel 97 or Excel 2000, including legacy desktops, lab systems, archived virtual machines, or business processes that open external text files in Excel. Treat as a legacy-technology risk. It is not KEV-listed in the bundle, but any remaining Excel 97 or 2000 use should be remediated or isolated because macro execution can affect business systems. Mitigation focus: Review Microsoft bulletin MS00-022 for vendor remediation guidance.; Remove or isolate remaining Excel 97 and Excel 2000 installations.; Avoid opening untrusted external text files in affected Excel versions..
