Vulnerability Assessment

ASVS 5.0
V15 - Secure Coding and Architecture Variable initialization
|
| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the attacker to already possess local, low-privileged authorized access to a device running Microsoft Office for Android version 16.0.1 prior to 16.0.20430.20000 (per EUVD affected-version data); no user interaction is needed (UI:N). The vulnerability is in the graphics component's handling of an uninitialized resource and yields confidentiality impact only. Limiting factors: no remote vector (AV:L - cannot be triggered over a network), prior authentication/local presence is mandatory (PR:L), and the affected scope appears confined to a specific vulnerable Android Office build range, so patched or non-Android installations are not exposed. |
| Impact | This is a moderate-severity, low-priority issue in practice. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N, base 5.5) describes a locally-exploitable information disclosure requiring the attacker to already have low-level authorized access to the device; there is no integrity or availability impact and no scope change. The confidentiality impact is rated High (CWE-908, use of uninitialized resource - i.e. leakage of residual uninitialized memory contents), which is what drives the score above medium. No EPSS score, SSVC decision data, KEV listing, or public POC was provided in the input, so there is no signal of active or probable exploitation; absence of these is not itself evidence of safety but does argue against urgency. The signals are internally consistent - a local, authenticated, memory-disclosure bug is a classic low-weaponization finding, typically chained as a secondary primitive (e.g., defeating ASLR or leaking tokens) rather than used standalone. One cross-reference caveat: the Description attributes this to the 'Microsoft Graphics Component' generically, while the EUVD affected-product data scopes it specifically to Microsoft Office for Android - verify the true affected surface with Microsoft's advisory before concluding which platforms are impacted. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | A low-privileged but authorized user (or malicious app) on an Android device running a vulnerable Microsoft Office build triggers the graphics component to process content, causing it to return uninitialized memory. The leaked bytes may contain residual sensitive data from other operations, which the attacker reads to gather information. No public exploit code was identified, and exploitation requires local access with existing low privileges (AV:L/PR:L). |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 13, 2026
Information disclosure in Microsoft Office for Android (versions 16.0.1 prior to 16.0.20430.20000) allows a locally authenticated attacker to read uninitialized memory from the graphics component, potentially exposing sensitive data. The vulnerability requires local, low-privileged access (PR:L) and no user interaction, with a CVSS 3.1 score of 5.5 (moderate severity). No public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not known to be actively exploited; patching to version 16.0.20430.20000 or later resolves the flaw.
RemediationAI
Apply the vendor-released patch by upgrading Microsoft Office for Android to version 16.0.20430.20000 or later. Microsoft provides the update through normal app store channels, and the fix is documented in the MSRC advisory (https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-105731). Because the vulnerability requires local, low-privileged access, no additional server-side mitigations apply; however, organizations should enforce timely app updates on managed Android devices and restrict device access to trusted users as a general defense-in-depth measure. No public workaround is documented; patching is the only complete remediation.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The flaw is classified as CWE-908 (Use of Uninitialized Resource), which occurs when memory allocated for a resource is used before it has been properly initialized. In the Microsoft Graphics Component, this can happen when the rendering pipeline fails to zero out or initialize a buffer before passing it to a function that reads or copies it. An attacker with local access can trigger the vulnerable code path, causing residual data from previous operations - possibly including sensitive information - to be disclosed to the attacker. The CVSS vector (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) confirms that exploitation is local, requires low privileges, needs no user interaction, and impacts only confidentiality. The graphics component is part of the Office application's display and rendering stack on Android, and the EUVD data indicates the affected builds are those earlier than 16.0.20430.20000.
