#Security Vulnerability
Use after free in Windows Notification allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
Improper authentication in Microsoft Office SharePoint allows an authorized attacker to perform spoofing over a network.
**Are the updates for the Microsoft Office LTSC for Mac currently available?** The security update for Microsoft Office LTSC for Mac 2021 and 2024 are not immediately available. The updates will be released as soon as possible, and when they are available, customers will be notified via a revision to this CVE information.
**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. For example, when the score indicates that the **Attack Vector** is **Local** and **User Interaction** is **Required**, this could describe an exploit in which an attacker, through social engineering, convinces a victim to download and open a specially crafted file from a website which leads to a local attack on their computer.
**What privileges could be gained by an attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability?** An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could gain SYSTEM privileges.
Out-of-bounds read in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information over a network.
**According to the CVSS metric, user interaction is required (UI:R) and privileges required is Low (PR:L). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploitation of this attack requires a local attacker to create arbitrary directories. User interaction is necessary as the attacker relies on an Administrator to run wprui.exe for the first time.
Heap-based buffer overflow in Windows Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.
**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is network (AV:N), user interaction is required (UI:R), and privileges required are none (PR:N). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Exploitation of this vulnerability requires an unauthorized attacker to wait for a user to initiate a connection to a malicious server that the attacker has set up prior to the user connecting.
**According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution?** The word **Remote** in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. This means an attacker or victim needs to execute code from the local machine to exploit the vulnerability.
