Microsoft HLINK.DLL Link Memory Corruption Vulnerability

"Microsoft HLINK.DLL is prone to a memory-corruption vulnerability. This
issue is due to the library's failure to properly bounds-check
user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory
buffer.

Successfully exploiting this issue allows attackers to execute arbitrary
machine code in the context of applications that use the affected library.
This facilitates the remote compromise of affected computers. Failed
exploit attempts will likely crash targeted applications.

This issue has been shown to be exploitable through Microsoft Excel files.
Other applications using the affected library may also be affected."
