DescriptionCVE.org

Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Access allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code locally.

AnalysisAI

Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Access enables local code execution when a user opens a specially crafted Access database file. Affected products span Access 2016, Office 2019, Office LTSC 2021, Office LTSC 2024, and Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise - representing a broad corporate user base. Vendor patch is available via MSRC; no public exploit or CISA KEV listing has been identified at time of analysis.

Technical ContextAI

The vulnerability is classified as CWE-122 (Heap-based Buffer Overflow), a memory corruption class in which a write operation exceeds the bounds of a heap-allocated buffer, potentially overwriting adjacent memory structures and enabling attacker-controlled code execution. Microsoft Office Access is a desktop relational database management application bundled with several Office suites and standalone products. The overflow is triggered during the parsing or processing of a malformed Access database file (.accdb or .mdb), corrupting heap metadata or function pointers in a way that redirects execution flow. Affected products confirmed via EUVD-2026-56710 include Access 2016 (32-bit and standard), Office LTSC 2024, Office LTSC 2021, Office 2019, and Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise, all at version 16.x or 19.x baselines. The CVSS vector AV:L reflects that the malicious file must be present on or delivered to the local system before exploitation can occur.

RemediationAI

The primary remediation is to apply Microsoft's released security update via the MSRC advisory at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-64906. For Microsoft Access 2016 (both 32-bit and standard editions), upgrade to version 16.0.5565.1000 or later. For Microsoft Office LTSC 2024, LTSC 2021, Office 2019, and Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise, apply the latest cumulative update per https://aka.ms/OfficeSecurityReleases - exact patched build numbers for these suites are not independently confirmed beyond the vendor reference. Where immediate patching is not feasible, organizations should consider blocking delivery and execution of Access database file types (.accdb, .mdb) at the email gateway and web proxy layer, with the trade-off that legitimate Access file workflows will be disrupted. Applying Microsoft's Protected View and disabling trusted document settings via Group Policy may reduce the auto-open surface but does not prevent the overflow from being triggered if the user elects to enable editing. Restricting Access application execution on endpoints where it is not required is the most effective compensating control.
