An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link."},"fix_prompt":"Check this codebase for CVE-2026-97780 and fix it if it is affected.\n\nWhat it is: CVE-2026-97780 is a high-severity memory corruption vulnerability in Microsoft 365 Apps, published on 13 Oct 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-97780 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft 365 Apps. 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-2026-97780/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97780/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-97780","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97780/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-97780","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-p8f3-wwp6-9v5j"],"analysis":{"component_type":"desktop_application","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft Office Excel","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary code remotely by exploiting a heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"365_apps","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"microsoft_365","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"office_2021","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"office_2024","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"office_online_server","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":8.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-122","name":"Heap-based Buffer Overflow"}],"description":"Heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code over a network.","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":"Microsoft Office Excel Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-97780","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:365_apps","products":["microsoft:365_apps","microsoft:microsoft_365","microsoft:office_2021","microsoft:office_2024","microsoft:office_online_server"],"type":"memory_corruption","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Microsoft Office OneNote Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-97781"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Microsoft Office Excel Information Disclosure Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2026-97779"},"products":["Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise","Microsoft Office 365 for Mac","Microsoft Office LTSC 2021","Microsoft Office LTSC 2024","Microsoft Office LTSC for Mac 2021","Microsoft Office LTSC for Mac 2024","Office Online Server"],"published":"2026-10-13","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Outlook Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2024-21413","kev_date_added":"2025-02-06","published":"2024-02-13"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Office Outlook Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2023-23397","kev_date_added":"2023-03-14","published":"2023-03-14"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Project Remote Code Execution Vulnerability","id":"CVE-2024-38189","kev_date_added":"2024-08-13","published":"2024-08-13"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Outlook Security Feature Bypass","id":"CVE-2023-35311","kev_date_added":"2023-07-11","published":"2023-07-11"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Office Word Reliance on Untrusted Inputs in a Security Decision","id":"CVE-2026-21514","kev_date_added":"2026-02-10","published":"2026-02-10"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Office Security Feature Bypass","id":"CVE-2026-21509","kev_date_added":"2026-01-26","published":"2026-01-26"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Excel Security Feature Bypass","id":"CVE-2021-42292","kev_date_added":"2021-11-17","published":"2021-11-10"}],"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":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"total"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-10-29","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"An attacker can execute arbitrary code remotely by exploiting a heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Excel.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-97780/"}
