  "title": "Microsoft COM for Windows Remote Code Execution Vulnerability",
  "description": "\u003Cp\u003EA remote code execution vulnerability exists in \u0022Microsoft COM for Windows\u0022 when it fails to properly handle serialized objects.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EAn attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could use a specially crafted file or script to perform actions. In an email attack scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending the specially crafted file to the user and convincing the user to open the file. In a web-based attack scenario, an attacker could host a website (or leverage a compromised website that accepts or hosts user-provided content) that contains a specially crafted file that is designed to exploit the vulnerability. However, an attacker would have no way to force the user to visit the website. Instead, an attacker would have to convince the user to click a link, typically by way of an enticement in an email or Instant Messenger message, and then convince the user to open the specially crafted file.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how \u0022Microsoft COM for Windows\u0022 handles serialized objects.\u003C/p\u003E",
