Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Microsoft Visio, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) An error when processing object header data can be exploited via a specially crafted Visio file.

2) An error while validating memory allocations when loading AutoCAD drawing files can be exploited via a specially crafted .DXF file.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of arbitrary code.
