DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Microsoft Excel,
which can
be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's
system.

1) An unspecified calculation error when handling
version-related
information can be exploited to corrupt memory via a
specially
crafted Excel file.

2) An error in the validation of the number of active
worksheets can
be exploited to corrupt memory via a specially crafted
Excel
file.

3) An error when validating the beginning of file
attributes
associated with workspace information can be exploited via
a
specially crafted Excel file.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow
execution of
arbitrary code.

NOTE: Additional unspecified security issues discovered
internally by
Microsoft have also been reported.

SOLUTION:
Apply patches.
