Good afternoon,

We are seeing quite a few Office related CVEs and would like to investigate them further to check if they are a false positive.

The one CVE im going to investigate first is CVE-2023-33150

All of my clients are running the Wazuh agent version 4.9.0
Wazuh Manager is also 4.9.0

I have recently deployed Office 2021 LTSC Build number = 14332.20771 Version = 2108


The Microsoft article for this CVE shows there is an update for Office 2021 LTSC
https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2023-33150

The update notes for the Office 2021 LTSC
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/microsoft365-apps-security-updates

This is for the patch that was released on September the 10th which is the exact same version and build number of my deployed Office.

Is this a false positive?
Are there any steps I can take to resolve this logged CVE?

Hi Retroisbest,

It seems like a false positive.
I believe this is due to the NVD feed

https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-33150

But it seems false positive to me based on MSU

https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/en-us/advisory/CVE-2023-33150

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/microsoft365-apps-security-updates

I will suggest you report the issue in Github, the responsible team will check and perform necessary sensitization to the feed.
https://github.com/wazuh/wazuh/issues/new/choose



You can check this for example.

If you need further assistance creating the issue on GitHub or if you want me to create the issue for you let me know.

I hope you find this information useful.
