Heuristics 4
-
CVE-2017-11882 — Equation Editor FONT record overflow critical CVE likely CVE_2017_11882Equation Editor MTEF contains an overlong FONT typeface field, the vulnerable copy primitive for CVE-2017-11882. This is stronger evidence than the Equation Editor CLSID alone because it identifies the malformed record that drives code execution in EQNEDT32.EXE.
