CVE-2025-59227 is a use-after-free vulnerability in Microsoft Office that can lead to remote code execution. The flaw affects Office document handling and is reported to be reachable through the Preview Pane, allowing exploitation when a specially crafted Microsoft Office document is processed. Available reporting indicates the vulnerability can be triggered without the victim explicitly opening the malicious file, making preview-based rendering a viable attack path. Successful exploitation results in code execution in the context of the affected Office application on Windows systems.
