DescriptionCVE.org

Access of resource using incompatible type ('type confusion') in Microsoft Office allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code locally.

AnalysisAI

Local code execution in Microsoft Office via a type confusion flaw (CWE-416) permits unauthorized attackers to run arbitrary code in the context of the Office process without requiring privileges or user interaction. The issue carries a high CVSS 3.1 score of 8.4 with full impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, though exploitation requires local attack vector access to the target system. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not currently listed in CISA KEV.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability resides in Microsoft Office and stems from CWE-416 (Use After Free), which the description frames as a 'type confusion' - access of a resource using an incompatible type. In practice this means Office code dereferences memory through a pointer whose object type no longer matches the actual freed/reallocated memory contents, allowing controlled corruption of object internals, vtables, or function pointers. Successful exploitation of such memory corruption flaws in Office typically leads to arbitrary code execution within the Office process sandbox. The provided tags (Use After Free, Memory Corruption, Authentication Bypass) reinforce that this is a classic memory-safety defect rather than a logic flaw, and no CPE data was supplied to pin exact affected SKUs or builds.

RemediationAI

Patch available per vendor advisory: apply the Microsoft security update referenced in the MSRC entry at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-45458 for each affected Office channel and SKU as soon as the patch is validated in your environment. Because no exact fix build was provided in the input data, administrators should consult the MSRC update guide to identify the specific KB or build for Microsoft 365 Apps, Office LTSC, and standalone Office versions before deployment. Compensating controls while patching is in flight include enabling Protected View and Application Guard for Office to contain document-borne triggers, blocking untrusted Office macros via Group Policy (trade-off: may break legitimate macro-based workflows), and restricting which low-privileged local processes can interact with Office via AppLocker or WDAC (trade-off: requires careful allowlisting to avoid breaking add-ins). The VulDB entry at https://vuldb.com/vuln/369666 may offer additional context as detail becomes public.
