Full Topic : New MS Office Zero-Days

Last week was spent combating a slew of exploits for the vulnerabilities patched by Microsoft on April 3.
Yesterday saw the release of several Microsoft Office zero-day exploits in security forums. Some of these flaws may allow for remote code execution. McAfee Avert Labs is investigating all these zero-days. Today is Patch Tuesday for April. So, yes: this is yet another time that zero-day flaws have been published around a Patch Tuesday, possibly to maximize the public’s exposure to these flaws until the next month’s Patch Tuesday.
