CVE-2025-62557 is a use-after-free vulnerability in Microsoft Office document parsing that allows an unauthorized attacker to execute arbitrary code locally within the affected Office process. A specially crafted document or email can trigger the vulnerability when parsed or previewed. Outlook's Preview Pane is an attack vector, allowing exploitation without explicitly opening an attachment or clicking a link. Other delivery paths involve malicious links and social engineering. The precise vulnerable function is not identified.
