Risk summary
Not in the CISA KEV catalog. EPSS exploit probability <1%. CVSS 7.8 (High).
This CVE is among the lower half of tracked Microsoft CVEs by EPSS exploit probability.
The risk here concentrates where Excel files are opened automatically: Office Online Server farms serving SharePoint and Outlook Web App previews, plus Office 2019 desktops in both editions. It is a High Severity (CVSS 7.8) remote code execution flaw with a 1 percent EPSS score and no exploitation observed, so it slots into the normal cycle, provided the server tier is not forgotten.
Do this: Confirm your Office Online Server build includes this fix; server farms often lag desktop Office patching.
