Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Microsoft Outlook, which could be exploited by attackers to take complete control of an affected system or cause a denial of service.
The first issue is due to a memory corruption error when processing specially crafted ".iCal" meeting requests and parsing malformed VEVENT requests, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands.
The second vulnerability is due to an error when processing malformed email headers, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable application via a specially crafted email.
The third vulnerability is due to a memory corruption error when processing a malformed Office Saved Searches (.oss) file, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a specially crafted email.
