S-177: Vulnerabilities in Microsoft Works File Converter
A remote code vulnerability exists in Microsoft Works File Converter due to the way that it improperly validates: 1) section length headers with the .wps format; 2) section header index table information with the .wps file format; and 3) various field lengths information with the .wps file format. The risk is MEDIUM. 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.
