Technical details
A heap-based buffer overflow exists in Microsoft Office Visio's file parsing logic that can be triggered by a malicious document sent over the network. The vulnerability allows remote code execution without requiring user authentication, though the user must interact with the malicious file (open it). An attacker can leverage this to achieve code execution in the context of the user running Visio.
