In short

Microsoft Excel can execute malicious code when you open a specially crafted file, allowing an attacker to take control of your computer. This happens because Excel doesn't properly validate data before processing it.

An attacker can achieve code execution in the context of the user running Excel by exploiting improper memory bounds checking, requiring user interaction to open the malicious file.
