A heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel allows a remote attacker to execute code. Exploitation requires that a user opens a crafted file, for example an email attachment or a downloaded file. The CVSS base score is 8.8 (High), and Microsoft released fixes on 13 October 2026.
Microsoft · Office Excel
A heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel, part of Microsoft 365 Apps and Office LTSC and Office for Mac editions, allows code execution over a network. Exploitation requires that a user opens a malicious Excel file, for example from an email attachment or a file-sharing link. The attacker can then run code with the rights of the user. CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.8 (NVD and Microsoft).
Microsoft · Office Excel
A heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network. The attack requires that a user opens a crafted file, for example an Excel document received by email or downloaded from the web. Microsoft has released patches; the CVSS 3.1 base score is 8.8 (High), while Microsoft's page lists a Max Severity of Critical.
Microsoft · Office Excel
A out-of-bounds read in Microsoft Office Excel, part of Microsoft 365 Apps and Office, allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network. Exploitation requires a user to take an action, such as opening a crafted Excel file. Server products in the affected list, including SharePoint Server Subscription Edition and Office Online Server, are also listed, and internet-published instances of these need priority attention. Microsoft's exploit maturity rating is unproven and no known exploitation was found at the time of research.
Microsoft · Office Excel
A heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute code over a network. Exploitation requires that a user opens a crafted Excel file, for example one received by email or downloaded from the internet. Successful exploitation would give the attacker code execution with the rights of the user.
Microsoft · 365 Apps
A heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel, shipped in Microsoft 365 Apps, Office LTSC, Office for Mac and Office Online Server, allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network. Exploitation requires that a user opens a crafted file, for example one received by email or downloaded from the web. Microsoft rates the flaw with CVSS 8.8; Microsoft and CISA data show no known exploitation in the wild at the time of publication.
Microsoft · Office Excel
A use-after-free vulnerability (CWE-416) in Microsoft Office Excel allows remote code execution. An unauthorized attacker can run code over the network if a user opens a crafted file, for example an email attachment or a download; no authentication is required. Microsoft rates the flaw Important (CVSS 8.8, high impact on confidentiality, integrity and availability). As of the records reviewed, no active exploitation and no public proof of concept are known.
Microsoft · Office Excel
A heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network. No privileges are required, but a victim must open or process a crafted file, for example a spreadsheet received by email or download. The flaw is rated CVSS 8.8 (High) and Microsoft has released fixes in October 2026.
Microsoft · Office Excel
Microsoft Office Excel contains a stack-based buffer overflow (CWE-121) that allows an unauthenticated attacker to execute code over a network. Exploitation requires that a user interacts with the attack, most likely by opening a malicious spreadsheet.
