Microsoft Office has Identified a Potential Security Concern

Anonymous

Hi,

Starting this afternoon, when I copy an paste an HTML-based wiki file (from Zendesk) into Word, I see the attached error.

I perform this operation numerous times, and never saw this notice until today. I have Word 365 Win10.

The problem does not occur when I paste a Confluence page.

Can someone clarify this message for me? What do they mean by "Choosing YES will enable updating all fields in this file..." What fields? And are they talking about the source file or target file?

Thanks!

Stephen

This is a bug in the current build - Microsoft is aware if the issue and working on a fix - but I have no ETA for when it will be fixed.

Here you go.

Surprised there's no mention of 365 or 2016. Thanks.

The ABOUT WORD button is from my colleague, not me. I can't find it, so I can't provide you my version #. :)

HI,

I had a coworker try it. He saw no error.

But looks like he's on old version of Word:

Never knew there was something called Word 2008.

Where do I find the HELP--ABOUT tab in 2016/365?

Thanks.
