Risk summary
Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2024-43465
An elevation of privilege flaw in Excel rather than the usual code execution, affecting Office 2019 and Microsoft Office Online Server, rated High Severity (CVSS 7.8) with 1 percent EPSS. On Office Online Server the calculus changes: the rendering service processes documents from many users, so an escalation there has server-wide consequences. Desktop installs face the routine open-a-bad-file risk.
Do this: Patch Office Online Server farms first, then let desktop Office 2019 updates flow through normal channels.
