S-178: Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office Publisher

A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way Microsoft Office Publisher validates application data when loading Publisher files to memory and memory index values. The risk is MEDIUM. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a specially crafted Publisher (.pub) file. When a user views the .pub file, the vulnerability could allow remote code execution. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
