 These vulnerabilities affect: All current versions of Microsoft Office for Windows and Mac (specifically Word and Excel)
 How an attacker exploits them: By enticing you to open maliciously crafted Office documents
 Impact: An attacker can execute code, potentially gaining complete control of your computer
 What to do: Install the appropriate Office patches immediately

Today, Microsoft released two security bulletins describing five vulnerabilities found in components or programs that ship with Microsoft Office for Windows and Mac. Some of the vulnerabilities also affect Word Viewer, the Office Compatibility Packs, and the Open XML File Format Converter for Mac. Each vulnerability affects different versions of Office to a different extent. The five flaws affect different components and applications within Office, but the end result is always the same - by enticing one of your users into downloading and opening a maliciously crafted Office document, an attacker can exploit any of these vulnerabilities to execute code on a victim's computer, usually inheriting that user's level of privileges and permissions. If your user has local administrative privileges, the attacker gains full control of the user's machine.
According to Microsoft's bulletins, an attacker can exploit these flaws using two types of Office documents: Word (.doc) and Excel (.xls). So beware of all unexpected documents you receive with these file extensions.
If you'd like to learn more about each individual flaw, drill into the "Vulnerability Details" section of the security bulletins listed below:
 MS10-056: Multiple Word Code Execution Vulnerabilities, rated Critical
 MS10-057: Excel Code Execution Vulnerability, rated Important

το έκανα όπως το είχα βρει και συμφωνίσατε και οι υπόλοιποι...από εκεί και πέρα δεν έχω αντιμετοπίσει κάτι άλλο εκτός ενός μυνήματος που προφανώς είναι άσχετο με το δικό μου σύστημα, καθώς όταν το googlara μου έβγαζε για linuxοειδές τύπο λάθους...

έχω και σχετικό thread το οποίο δεν απαντήθηκε ποτέ
