Technical details
A heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Access allows remote code execution when processing malicious input. The vulnerability can be triggered over the network without requiring user authentication beyond opening a crafted file, though user interaction (opening the malicious document) is a precondition. Successful exploitation grants the attacker arbitrary code execution in the context of the Access process.
