It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2006-3877 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Excel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-3877/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-3877/index.md)","id":"CVE-2006-3877","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-3877/index.md","name":"CVE-2006-3877","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-j86v-2r4w-rjjr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft Office PowerPoint","requires_auth":"none","summary":"User-assisted attackers can execute arbitrary code via a crafted PowerPoint file in Microsoft Office.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"access","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"excel","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"excel_viewer","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"frontpage","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"infopath","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"office","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"onenote","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"outlook","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"powerpoint","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"project","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"publisher","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"visio","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"word","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"word_viewer","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":9.3,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"Unspecified vulnerability in PowerPoint in Microsoft Office 2000, Office 2002, Office 2003, Office 2004 for Mac, and Office v.X for Mac allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via an unspecified \"crafted file,\" a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-3435, CVE-2006-4694, and CVE-2006-3876.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-3877","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:excel","products":["microsoft:excel","microsoft:excel_viewer","microsoft:office","microsoft:outlook","microsoft:powerpoint","microsoft:visio","microsoft:word","microsoft:word_viewer"],"type":"code_injection","year":"2006"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":12,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-3878"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-3876"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2006-10-10","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Office Excel Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2007-0671","kev_date_added":"2025-08-12","published":"2007-02-03"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-0788","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2002-03-09"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-2503","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2015-11-11"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3155","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-09-11"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3156","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-09-11"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2013-3157","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2013-09-11"},{"cvss_score":9.3,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2010-0814","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-07-14"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"User-assisted attackers can execute arbitrary code via a crafted PowerPoint file in Microsoft Office.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-3877/"}
