Re: Microsoft confirmed Word 0-day vulnerability



Better workaround is to upgrade.

If you see any attacks/web sites hosting files, please note the locations and notify secure@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

It is also reported that Word Viewer application is not affected.

As a workaround it is possible to avoid opening Word files from unrusted sources, including e-mail, Web pages, IMs etc. It is reported that these malicious Word files has been hosted on Web sites too.
