Once, I have been writing pen test report for one of my clients. I wrote the report, of course, using the most popular text editor - Microsoft Word. I was very surprised when Word stopped responding after inserting the payload used to perform XML Bomb DoS attack. I repeated the test with the same result, stating that the program ate all the available RAM. The tested version was current version at the moment - a thick client supplied with Office 365 (MSO (16.0.10228.20134 64 bit). I also checked other MS Office programs - Outlook and older versions of Word were also affected. Look at the movies.
