Microsoft Office Excel 2002 SP3 and 2003 SP3, Office 2004 and 2008 for Mac, Open XML File Format Converter for Mac, and Office Excel Viewer 2003 SP3 do not properly parse the Excel file format, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted spreadsheet, aka "Excel Cache Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy Microsoft Excel file-parsing flaw. A malicious spreadsheet could cause code execution when opened in affected Office or viewer components. Business urgency is highest where old Office versions, Mac converters, or Excel Viewer remain in use. Exposure is most likely in legacy desktop environments, archived VDI images, unmanaged Macs, or systems retaining Excel Viewer or the Mac Open XML converter. Modern Office deployments are not identified as affected in the supplied bundle. Treat as high priority only if legacy Microsoft Office components remain in the estate. The main business risk is user-driven compromise from malicious spreadsheet files on outdated software. Mitigation focus: Apply Microsoft guidance and updates from MS09-067 for affected products.; Remove or upgrade unsupported Office 2002, Office 2003, legacy Mac Office, and Excel Viewer installations.; Restrict opening untrusted spreadsheets on systems that cannot be promptly updated..
