A certain ActiveX control in sapi.dll (aka the Speech API) in Speech Components in Microsoft Windows Vista, when the Speech Recognition feature is enabled, allows user-assisted remote attackers to delete arbitrary files, and conduct other unauthorized activities, via a web page with an embedded sound object that contains voice commands to an enabled microphone, allowing for interaction with Windows Explorer.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This old Windows Vista issue involved Speech Recognition listening to audio played by a malicious web page. If Speech Recognition and a microphone were enabled, spoken commands could cause Windows Explorer actions such as file deletion. The evidence describes a highly conditional, user-assisted scenario, not broad remote code execution. Exposure is mainly legacy Windows Vista systems with Speech Recognition enabled, microphone input active, and a user visiting attacker-controlled web content. Modern Windows versions or Vista systems without this feature enabled are not established as affected by the supplied sources. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item, not an emergency internet-wide threat. Priority rises if any Vista machines remain in business workflows with microphones enabled, user browsing allowed, or access to sensitive local files. Mitigation focus: Identify and retire any remaining Windows Vista systems.; Disable Speech Recognition where it is not operationally required.; Apply Microsoft guidance referenced by MS08-032 where applicable..
