# Microsoft Outlook: heap buffer overflow lets a remote attacker run code

Link for people: https://infrastack.ai/live/CVE-2026-123383 (this .md is for agents)

A heap-based buffer overflow in Microsoft Office Outlook lets an unauthorized attacker reach code execution over a network. The NVD entry gives a CVSS score of 8.8 and does not describe the trigger in detail.

_Summary, check and fix written by a model from the sources; labelled as such._

## Affected

- vendor:Microsoft Office Outlook affected range not listed fixed no fixed version listed
- vendor:Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise affected unknown; builds before 16.0.14334.21048 / 16.0.17932.21140 per OffSeq (unconfirmed) fixed 16.0.14334.21048, 16.0.17932.21140

## How to check

Check your Microsoft 365 Apps build (Outlook: File > Office Account > About Outlook). A secondary source (OffSeq, not Microsoft) lists fixed builds 16.0.14334.21048 and 16.0.17932.21140; confirm against the MSRC update guide entry for CVE-2026-123383 and the Office security release notes (learn.microsoft.com/officeupdates/microsoft365-apps-security-updates) before relying on them. Trigger needs user interaction per the CVSS vector (UI:R).
