CVE-2026-42832 is an improper access control vulnerability in Microsoft Office/Excel on Android. According to the provided context, the issue stemmed from a development/debug flag left enabled in production code within a shared Microsoft SDK used by multiple Microsoft 365 Android applications. That flag caused the normal trust verification during inter-application token handoff to be skipped, allowing an untrusted application on the same device to request and obtain the signed-in user’s Microsoft token as though it were a trusted Microsoft app. For Excel, Microsoft classified the issue as a local spoofing vulnerability under CWE-284 and assigned CVSS 7.7. The exposed tokens were described as Microsoft FOCI refresh tokens used for single sign-on across Microsoft applications, enabling access without a password, login prompt, or permission prompt.
