Summary
A spoofing vulnerability exists in the way Microsoft Outlook iOS software parses specifically crafted email messages.

The attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could then perform cross-site scripting attacks on the affected systems and run scripts in the security context of the current user. The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how Outlook iOS parses specially crafted email messages.
