Whats a template?
A template can be thoughts of as a skeleton document. For instance, a template of a research paper might define the needed styles, include pre-built headers and footers, and include any required boilerplate text. When a user needs to create a new research paper, she or he could use the template as a foundation upon which to develop her or his actual paper. Example of templates can be found in the Microsoft Office Template Gallery. Like other documents, templates can contain macros. When Word is used to open a document that’s based on a template, both the document and the template should be checked for macros. The vulnerability involves a case in which this isn’t done correctly.
