This issue has been resolved in the Microsoft bulletin MS06-012, which may be downloaded from: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS06-012.mspx NGSSoftware are going to withhold details of this flaw for three months. Full details will be published on the 14th June 2006. This three month window will allow users of Microsoft Excel the time needed to apply the patch before the details are released to the general public.
