  CVE Identifier: CVE-2013-3155,CVE-2013-3156,CVE-2013-3157
  Advisory Date: OCT 08, 2013

  DESCRIPTION

This security update resolves three privately reported vulnerabilities in Microsoft Office. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user opens a specially crafted Access file with an affected version of Microsoft Access. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the current user. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
