Microsoft to share Office code


Microsoft to share Office code 09/20/2004 10:44 AM
Reuters reports that Microsoft has announced plans to open up the code to their Office suite. Microsoft will share the code with 30 world governments, allowing them to inspect it for “security problems”. The announcement is part of a wider "Microsoft's Government Security Program" launched last year, where 30 governments have been allowed access to the source code of Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows CE and now Office 2003.

Microsoft’s main competitor in many markets is free software. More often than not, it's also open source (i.e. anyone can view the underlying code that makes the programs work). Microsoft programs are generally closed source and are only opened up to select people, often with tight restrictions.

To a certain extent, Microsoft has opened up the code to stay competitive (or ahead of the game) with regard to Open Source software. Asides from this fact, the problems with security and inter-operability with Microsoft programs has prompted the move. Governments often use and need software from a variety of vendors to work together to ensure efficiency. Microsoft hopes the move will restore any faith lost in the past few years; recently, the company has been beaten to some lucrative and high value contracts by Open Source alternatives.

Microsoft Corp. announced this week it is making the programming code for its Office 2003 software suite available to government agencies around the globe, a move partly aimed at allowing them to inspect the product for flaws and security problems. Though Microsoft usually guards such software coding tightly, the step is an extension of an initiative the company began in January 2003 giving about 60 governments access to the inner workings of the Windows operating system. This is the first time the software giant has shared the source code for Office, which includes the Word text processing, Excel spreadsheet, and PowerPoint presentation programs.

Microsoft Security Bulletin MS03-050:
Vulnerability in Microsoft Word and
Microsoft Excel Could Allow Arbitrary
Code to Run (831527)
11/13/2003 12:36 AM
A security vulnerability exists in Microsoft Word that could allow malicious code execution. This vulnerability exists due to to the way Word checks the length of a data value (Macro names) embedded in a document. If a specially crafted document were to be opened it could overflow a data value in Word and allow arbitrary code to be executed. If successfully exploited, an attacker could then take the same actions as the user had permissions to carry out, such as adding, changing or deleting data or files, communicating with a web site or formatting the hard drive.
