CVE-2009-3129 — Excel FEATHEADER record overflow critical CVE exact CVE_2009_3129Workbook BIFF stream contains a FEATHEADER (Feature Header) record with anomalous size (record_size=22, isf=4, cbHdrData=4). Legitimate FEATHEADER records are tiny (<100 bytes) and carry cbHdrData values that fit in the record body; the value here is the documented CVE-2009-3129 exploit primitive — cbHdrData drives a memcpy with attacker-controlled size, leading to memory corruption and code execution in Excel 2007/2003.

OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALYOLE file is 232,168 bytes but its declared streams total only 34,044 bytes — 198,124 bytes (85%) live in unallocated sector slack. This is the canonical hiding place for pre-macro-era Office exploit payloads (XOR-encoded shellcode reached via a parser pointer-corruption bug in the document structure).
-
OLE file has appended executable-looking payload bytes high OLE_APPENDED_PAYLOADOLE compound file contains a large high-entropy region beyond the declared major streams and that region includes shellcode, PE, or loader API markers. This is a payload-carrier signal, not a specific CVE attribution by itself.
