Second Microsoft Excel Attack Discovered by Hacker

A hacker has posted code that exploits a vulnerability in Microsoft’s Excel software. The code could be used to run unauthorized programs on a PC. Microsoft has already patched a similar hole in Word software last week. It’s the second time in the past week that Excel users have had to worry about this type of malware. Users must click on a specially crafted hyperlink for the attack to run, but it’s less critical than the first attack. Microsoft says it’s investigating reports of the latest vulnerability.”]
