The Microsoft Office Online Server or Microsoft Office Web Apps installation on the remote host is missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code when a maliciously modified file is opened. (CVE-2021-1713, CVE-2021-1714, CVE-2021-1715, CVE-2021-1716)
