**I have Microsoft Word 2010 installed. Why am I not being offered the 3114403 update?** The 3114403 update only applies to systems running specific configurations of Microsoft Office 2010. Some configurations will not be offered the update. **I am being offered this update for software that is not specifically indicated as being affected in the Affected Software and Vulnerability Severity Ratings table. Why am I being offered this update?** When updates address vulnerable code that exists in a component that is shared between multiple Microsoft Office products or shared between multiple versions of the same Microsoft Office product, the update is considered to be applicable to all supported products and versions that contain the vulnerable component. For example, when an update applies to Microsoft Office 2007 products, only Microsoft Office 2007 may be specifically listed in the Affected Software table. However, the update could apply to Microsoft Word 2007, Microsoft Excel 2007, Microsoft Visio 2007, Microsoft Compatibility Pack, Microsoft Excel Viewer, or any other Microsoft Office 2007 product that is not specifically listed in the Affected Software table. For example, when an update applies to Microsoft Office 2010 products, only Microsoft Office 2010 may be specifically listed in the Affected Software table. However, the update could apply to Microsoft Word 2010, Microsoft Excel 2010, Microsoft Visio 2010, Microsoft Visio Viewer, or any other Microsoft Office 2010 product that is not specifically listed in the Affected Software table. For example, when an update applies to Microsoft Office 2013 products, only Microsoft Office 2013 may be specifically listed in the Affected Software table. However, the update could apply to Microsoft Word 2013, Microsoft Excel 2013, Microsoft Visio 2013, or any other Microsoft Office 2013 product that is not specifically listed in the Affected Software table. Vulnerability Information ------------------------- Multiple Microsoft Office Memory Corruption Vulnerabilities ----------------------------------------------------------- Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist in Microsoft Office software when the Office software fails to properly handle objects in memory. An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could run arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If the current user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker could take control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities requires that a user open a specially crafted file with an affected version of Microsoft Office software. In an email attack scenario an attacker could exploit the vulnerabilities by sending the specially crafted file to the user and convincing the user to open the file. In a web-based attack scenario an attacker could host a website (or leverage a compromised website that accepts or hosts user-provided content) that contains a specially crafted file that is designed to exploit the vulnerabilities. An attacker would have no way to force users to visit the website. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to click a link, typically by way of an enticement in an email or Instant Messenger message, and then convince them to open the specially crafted file. The security update addresses the vulnerabilities by correcting how Office handles objects in memory. The following tables contain links to the standard entry for each vulnerability in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures list:
Vulnerability titleCVE numberPublicly disclosedExploited
Microsoft Office Memory Corruption VulnerabilityCVE-2015-6040NoNo
Microsoft Office Memory Corruption VulnerabilityCVE-2015-6118NoNo
Microsoft Office Memory Corruption VulnerabilityCVE-2015-6122NoNo
Microsoft Office Memory Corruption VulnerabilityCVE-2015-6124YesNo
Microsoft Office Memory Corruption VulnerabilityCVE-2015-6177NoNo
Microsoft Office RCE Vulnerability – CVE-2015-6172 -------------------------------------------------- A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that Microsoft Outlook parses specially crafted email messages. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could run arbitrary code as the logged-on user and take complete control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. To exploit the vulnerability, the user must open or preview a specially crafted email message with an affected version of Microsoft Outlook. In an email attack scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted email message to the user and then convincing the user to preview or open the email. Workstations and terminal servers on which Microsoft Outlook is install are at risk of this vulnerability. Servers could be more at risk if administrators allow users to log on to them to run programs. However, best practices strongly discourage allowing this. The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Microsoft Outlook parses specially crafted malicious email messages. Microsoft received information about this vulnerability through coordinated vulnerability disclosure. At the time this security bulletin was originally issued, Microsoft was unaware of any attack attempting to exploit this vulnerability. ### Mitigating Factors Microsoft has not identified any [mitigating factors](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/dn848375.aspx) for this vulnerability. ### Workarounds The following [workarounds](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/dn848375.aspx) may be helpful in your situation: - **Disable previewing messages in Outlook**

**There are multiple update packages available for some of the affected software. Do I need to install all the updates listed in the Affected Software table for the software?** Yes. Customers should apply all updates offered for the software installed on their systems. **I am being offered this update for software that is not specifically listed in the Affected Software table. Why am I being offered this update?** When updates address vulnerable code that exists in a component that is shared between multiple Microsoft Office products or shared between multiple versions of the same Microsoft Office product, the update is considered to be applicable to all supported products and versions that contain the vulnerable component. For example, when an update applies to Microsoft Office 2007 products, only Microsoft Office 2007 may be specifically listed in the Affected Software table. However, the update could apply to Microsoft Word 2007, Microsoft Excel 2007, Microsoft Visio 2007, Microsoft Compatibility Pack, Microsoft Excel Viewer, or any other Microsoft Office 2007 product that is not specifically listed in the Affected Software table. For example, when an update applies to Microsoft Office 2010 products, only Microsoft Office 2010 may be specifically listed in the Affected Software table. However, the update could apply to Microsoft Word 2010, Microsoft Excel 2010, Microsoft Visio 2010, Microsoft Visio Viewer, or any other Microsoft Office 2010 product that is not specifically listed in the Affected Software table. For example, when an update applies to Microsoft Office 2013 products, only Microsoft Office 2013 may be specifically listed in the Affected Software table. However, the update could apply to Microsoft Word 2013, Microsoft Excel 2013, Microsoft Visio 2013, or any other Microsoft Office 2013 product that is not specifically listed in the Affected Software table. Vulnerability Information ------------------------- Multiple Microsoft Office Memory Corruption Vulnerabilities ----------------------------------------------------------- Remote code execution vulnerabilities exist in Microsoft Office software when the Office software fails to properly handle objects in memory. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities requires that a user open a specially crafted file with an affected version of Microsoft Office software. In an email attack scenario an attacker could exploit the vulnerabilities by sending the specially crafted file to the user and convincing the user to open the file. In a web-based attack scenario an attacker could host a website (or leverage a compromised website that accepts or hosts user-provided content) that contains a specially crafted file that is designed to exploit the vulnerabilities. An attacker would have no way to force users to visit the website. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to click a link, typically by way of an enticement in an email or Instant Messenger message. An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could run arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If the current user is logged on with administrative user rights, an attacker could take complete control of the affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. The security update addresses the vulnerabilities by correcting how Microsoft Office handles files in memory. The following tables contain links to the standard entry for each vulnerability in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures list:
Vulnerability titleCVE numberPublicly DisclosedExploited
Microsoft Office Memory Corruption VulnerabilityCVE-2015-2520NoNo
Microsoft Office Memory Corruption VulnerabilityCVE-2015-2521NoNo
Microsoft Office Memory Corruption VulnerabilityCVE-2015-2523NoNo
### Mitigating Factors Microsoft has not identified any [mitigating factors](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/dn848375.aspx) for these vulnerabilities. ### Workarounds Microsoft has not identified any [workarounds](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/dn848375.aspx) for these vulnerabilities. Microsoft SharePoint XSS Spoofing Vulnerability – CVE-2015-2522 --------------------------------------------------------------- A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability, which could result in spoofing, exists when SharePoint fails to properly sanitize user-supplied web requests. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could perform persistent cross-site scripting attacks and run script (in the security context of the logged-on user) with malicious content that appears authentic. This could allow the attacker to steal sensitive information, including authentication cookies and recently submitted data. To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker must have the ability to submit a specially crafted content to a target site. Because of the vulnerability, in specific situations specially crafted script is not properly sanitized, which subsequently could lead to an attacker-supplied script to be run in the security context of a user who views the malicious content. For cross-site scripting attacks, this vulnerability requires that a user be visiting a compromised site for any malicious action to occur. For instance, after an attacker has successfully submitted a specially crafted web request to a target site, any webpage on that site that contains the specially crafted content is a potential vector for cross-site scripting attacks. When a user visits a webpage that contains the specially crafted content, the script could be run in the security context of the user. The security update addresses the vulnerability by modifying how SharePoint validates web requests. Microsoft received information about the vulnerabilities through coordinated vulnerability disclosure. When this security bulletin was issued, Microsoft had not received any information to indicate that these vulnerabilities had been publicly used to attack customers. ### Mitigating Factors Microsoft has not identified any [mitigating factors](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/dn848375.aspx) for these vulnerabilities. ### Workarounds Microsoft has not identified any [workarounds](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/dn848375.aspx) for these vulnerabilities. Microsoft Office Malformed EPS File Vulnerability - CVE-2015-2545 ----------------------------------------------------------------- A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Microsoft Office that could be exploited when a user opens a file containing a malformed graphics image or when a user inserts a malformed graphics image into an Office file. Such a file could also be included in an email attachment. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a specially crafted EPS file that could allow remote code execution. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take control of the affected system. This vulnerability could not be exploited automatically through a Web-based attack scenario. An attacker could host a specially crafted website containing an Office file that is designed to exploit the vulnerability, and then convince a user to view the website. The attacker could also take advantage of compromised websites and websites that accept or host user-provided content or advertisements by adding specially crafted content that could exploit the vulnerability. In all cases, however, an attacker would have no way to force users to view the attacker-controlled content. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to take action, typically by getting them to click a link in an instant messenger or email message that takes users to the attacker's website, or by getting them to open an attachment sent through email. If Microsoft Word is the selected email reader, which is the default setting, then an attacker could leverage Outlook for an email-based attack by sending a specially crafted file, containing an EPS image binary, to the targeted user. In this scenario this attack vector requires minimal user action (as in viewing a specially crafted email through the preview pane in Outlook) to be exploited. Workstations and terminal servers that have Microsoft Office installed are primarily at risk. Servers could be at more risk if administrators allow users to log on to servers and to run programs. However, best practices strongly discourage allowing this. Microsoft received information about the vulnerability through coordinated vulnerability disclosure. When this security bulletin was issued, Microsoft had received reports of limited targeted attacks using this vulnerability. ### Mitigations The following [mitigating factors](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/dn848375.aspx) may be helpful in your situation: - This vulnerability could not be exploited automatically through a Web-based attack scenario. An attacker would have to host a website that contains an Office file containing a specially crafted EPS image that is used to attempt to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker would have no way to force users to visit a malicious website. Instead, an attacker would have to convince them to visit the website, typically by getting them to click a link that takes them to the attacker's site, and then convince the user to open the file in an affected Microsoft Office application. - The vulnerability could be exploited by an attacker who convinced a user to open a specially crafted file. There is no way for an attacker to force a user to open a specially crafted file. ### Workarounds The following [workarounds](https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/dn848375.aspx) may be helpful in your situation: - **Modify the Access Control List to deny access to EPSIMP32.FLT for ALL USERS** There are two ways to implement this workaround. You can manually apply the workaround by using either the Registry Method or the Script Method to deny access to EPSIMP32.FLT for ALL USERS. Alternatively, see [Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 3092845](https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3092845) to use the automated Microsoft Fix it solutions. | Note: | |--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | See [Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 3092845](https://support.microsoft.com/kb/3092845)to use automated Microsoft Fix it Solution 51037 to deny access to EPSIMP32.FLT. | **Registry Method** **Warning** If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk. 1. Click **Start**, click **Run**, type **regedit.exe**, and then click **OK**. 2. Navigate to **HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftShared ToolsGraphics FiltersImportEPS** 3. Take note of the value of **Path**. In explorer, navigate to the **EPSIMP32.FLT** file at the location listed as the value of **Path**. 4. Right click on **EPSIMP32.FLT** file and select **Properties**. 5. On the **Security** tab, click **Advanced**. 6. Clear the **Allow inheritable permissions from the parent to propagate to this object**… checkbox and click **Remove**. 7. Click **OK**, **Yes**, and then **OK.** **Script Method** **For all supported 32-bit editions of OS** Run the following commands from a command prompt as an administrator: ``` takeown /f '%ProgramFiles%Common FilesMicrosoft SharedGRPHFLTEPSIMP32.FLT' icacls '%ProgramFiles%Common FilesMicrosoft SharedGRPHFLTEPSIMP32.FLT' /save %TEMP% EPSIMP32 _ACL.TXT icacls '%ProgramFiles%Common FilesMicrosoft SharedGRPHFLTEPSIMP32.FLT' /deny everyone:(F) ```

For all supported x64-based editions of OS
Run the following commands from a command prompt as an administrator:
