FortiClient VulnerabilityMicrosoft Outlook CVE-2018-8244 Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
Description
An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when Microsoft Outlook does not validate attachment headers properly. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could send an email with hidden attachments that would be opened or executed once a victim clicks a link within the email. Note that this does not bypass attachment filters, so blocked attachments will still be excluded.
