Microsoft Word 2000 9.0.2812 and 2003 11.8106.8172 does not properly handle unordered lists, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted .doc file. NOTE: some of these details are obtained from third party information.

Buffer overflow in msjet40.dll before 4.0.9505.0 in Microsoft Jet Database Engine allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Word file, as exploited in the wild in March 2008. NOTE: as of 20080513, Microsoft has stated that this is the same issue as CVE-2007-6026.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Word 2000 SP3, Word 2002 SP3, and Office 2004 for Mac allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malformed string in a Word file, aka "Word Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Word (or Word Viewer) in Microsoft Office 2000 SP3, XP SP3, 2003 SP2, 2004 for Mac, and Works Suite 2004, 2005, and 2006 does not properly parse certain rich text "property strings of certain control words," which allows user-assisted remote attackers to trigger heap corruption and execute arbitrary code, aka the "Word RTF Parsing Vulnerability."

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Word 2000 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unknown vectors, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-5994, CVE-2006-6456, CVE-2006-6561, and CVE-2007-0515, a variant of Exploit-MS06-027.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Excel 2000, XP, 2003, and 2004 for Mac, and possibly other Office products, allows remote user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown attack vectors, as demonstrated by Exploit-MSExcel.h in targeted zero-day attacks.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Word allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on Word 2000, and cause a denial of service on Word 2003, via unknown attack vectors that trigger memory corruption, as exploited by Trojan.Mdropper.W and later by Trojan.Mdropper.X, a different issue than CVE-2006-6456, CVE-2006-5994, and CVE-2006-6561.

Microsoft Word in Office 2000 SP3, XP SP3, Office 2003 SP2, Works Suite 2004 to 2006, and Office 2004 for Mac does not correctly check the properties of certain documents and warn the user of macro content, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Word 2000, 2002, and Word Viewer 2003 allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted DOC file that triggers memory corruption, as demonstrated via the 12122006-djtest.doc file, a different issue than CVE-2006-5994 and CVE-2006-6456.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Word 2000, 2002, and 2003 and Word Viewer 2003 allows remote attackers to execute code via unspecified vectors related to malformed data structures that trigger memory corruption, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-5994.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Word 2000 and 2002, Office Word and Word Viewer 2003, Word 2004 and 2004 v. X for Mac, and Works 2004, 2005, and 2006 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a Word document with a malformed string that triggers memory corruption, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-6456.

Unspecified vulnerability in PowerPoint in Microsoft Office 2000, Office 2002, Office 2003, Office 2004 for Mac, and Office v.X for Mac allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via an unspecified "crafted file," a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-3435, CVE-2006-4694, and CVE-2006-3876.

Unspecified vulnerability in Microsoft Word 2000, 2002, and Office 2003 allows remote user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted mail merge file, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-3647 and CVE-2006-4693.

Stack-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Word 2000 and Word 2002, and Microsoft Works Suites 2000 through 2004, might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a .doc file with long font information.

Buffer overflow in Microsoft Word 2000, Word 2002, and Word 2003 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted document.

Buffer overflow in the converter for Microsoft WordPerfect 5.x on Office 2000, Office XP, Office 2003, and Works Suites 2001 through 2004 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malicious document or website.

Microsoft Excel 97, 2000, and 2002 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a spreadsheet with a malicious XLM (Excel 4) macro that bypasses the macro security model.

Microsoft Word 97, 98(J), 2000, and 2002, and Microsoft Works Suites 2001 through 2004, do not properly check the length of the "Macro names" data value, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a buffer overflow attack.

Microsoft Word 2002, 2000, 97, and 98(J) does not properly check certain properties of a document, which allows attackers to bypass the macro security model and automatically execute arbitrary macros via a malicious document.

Microsoft Word and Excel allow remote attackers to steal sensitive information via certain field codes that insert the information when the document is returned to the attacker, as demonstrated in Word using (1) INCLUDETEXT or (2) INCLUDEPICTURE, aka "Flaw in Word Fields and Excel External Updates Could Lead to Information Disclosure."

Microsoft Outlook 2000 and 2002, when configured to use Microsoft Word as the email editor, does not block scripts that are used while editing email messages in HTML or Rich Text Format (RTF), which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary scripts via an email that the user forwards or replies to.

Microsoft Word 2000 does not check AutoRecovery (.asd) files for macros, which allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary macros with the user ID of the Word user.

Microsoft Word 2002 and earlier allows attackers to automatically execute macros without warning the user by embedding the macros in a manner that escapes detection by the security scanner.

Microsoft Word before Word 2002 allows attackers to automatically execute macros without warning the user via a Rich Text Format (RTF) document that links to a template with the embedded macro.

The Mail Merge tool in Microsoft Word does not prompt the user before executing Visual Basic (VBA) scripts in an Access database, which could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary commands.
