Vulnerability Information
Multiple Windows OLE Memory Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities
Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist when Microsoft Windows
OLE fails to properly validate user input. An attacker could use the
vulnerabilities to execute malicious code.
To exploit the vulnerabilities, an attacker would have to convince a user to
open either a specially crafted file or a program from either a webpage or an
email message. The update addresses the vulnerabilities by correcting how
Windows OLE validates user input.
The following table contains links to the standard entry for each
vulnerability in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures list:
Vulnerability title CVE number Publicly disclosed Exploited
Windows OLE Memory Remote Code Execution Vulnerability CVE-2016-0091 No No
Windows OLE Memory Remote Code Execution Vulnerability CVE-2016-0092 No No
