Microsoft Office exploits are cunningly-crafted, deliberately malformed chunks of data, inserted into Office files, that crash the application in a way that gives cybercriminals control, so that they can install malware without you noticing.
With a reliable exploit in hand, they don’t need to persuade you to click a web link, or to download and install a program, or to enable Office macros (which are off by default, with very good reason) and re-open the document at a lower security level.
Crooks update their exploits – have you updated your Office?
