Interesting via @MyYiff and others - .iqy files (that open in Microsoft Excel), trigger DDE exploit. Mass spamming right now. Bypass mail gateways it appears. https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/a0b80b57879ef437709bae7e2896efb7be9bd57291e64bc58d7cd13bd1de9f27/analysis/ …

Wait... I thought installing those updates killed DDE unless you made changes to the registry to re-enable it??

The wording is confusing. So far I've only tested Excel 2016 on Windows 7, patched as of May. The DDE-blocking registry value wasn't present by default. Only after setting it manually did it prevent my CSV from launching calc.exe.

I wonder if it matters at all. I see a total uprise in genuine emails from businesses who think macro's in xls(x) sheets are the solution.
