Unauthorized Access Attempt
Microsoft Exchange could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the system, caused by improper decoding of MIME base64-encoded content. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially-crafted email to a user account on the server to execute arbitrary code on the system with the victim's privileges, once the email is opened.
Apply the appropriate patch for your system, as listed in the latest Microsoft Security Bulletin. See References.
