User-triggered remote code execution
Published Dec 13, 2022 · Updated Jul 22, 2025
Remote code execution in Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise allows context-dependent attackers to execute code through graphics content. Microsoft has not published the affected graphics parser, malformed data type, or unsafe operation that triggers code execution. Exploitation requires user interaction with attacker-controlled content, and the code runs within the unchanged security scope of the Office process.
