word security

The word security tag covers discussions about vulnerabilities and exploits affecting Microsoft Word, including remote code execution flaws like CVE-2026-20944. Topics explain how CVSS scoring can appear contradictory when a vulnerability is labeled remote but scored with a local attack vector, clarifying that the remote aspect refers to the attacker's delivery method while execution occurs locally when a user opens a malicious file. The tag also addresses patch management, security advisories, and practical implications for administrators and security teams managing Word-related threats.
