==================
For a list of operating system and product versions affected, please see the Microsoft Bulletin reference below.

Additional Information:
=======================
The vulnerability lies in "excel.exe", which is used when processing an Excel file. A maliciously crafted document will cause Excel to crash when processing. The crash occurs while calculating memory using an offset and a two-byte value contained in the document. If the two-byte value is set to a high value, an overflow condition will occur during memory calculation. A remote attacker can potentially control the memory referenced as a result of the overflow to alter program flow, and execute arbitrary code on a victims machine.
