This allows an attacker to deliver a malicious file, which when opened by a user, would <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ameeba.com\/blog\/cve-2025-47169-heap-based-buffer-overflow-vulnerability-in-microsoft-office-word\/\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"82008\">overflow the buffer<\/a> and overwrite adjacent memory spaces.
