Authenticated interface spoofing requiring user interaction
Published Nov 6, 2023 · Updated Aug 10, 2026
Spoofing in Microsoft OneNote and affected Office editions allows remote authenticated users to alter displayed content after user interaction. Microsoft has not published the affected parsing or rendering locus, the crafted input involved, or the incorrect operation that produces the spoofed interface. Exploitation requires low-privileged network access and user interaction and can expose or modify limited data without interrupting service.
