Warning about Rich Text Format (RTF) documents

Recently, Microsoft discovered a security vulnerability for users running Microsoft Word. This vulnerability can occur when a user downloads a Rich Text Format (RTF) file that has been coded with malicious content. Most often, this type of file will come in an email attachment.

Microsoft is currently working on a security patch for this issue, but in the meantime, CaTS highly encourages you to not save or open any Rich Text Format files. If you have questions about this issue, please contact the CaTS Help Desk at (937) 775-4827.
