Microsoft's Macintosh Business Unit released updates on Tuesday for Office 2004 and Office 2008.

Taking a page from Apple's most recent updates, Microsoft was stingy with details on what exactly the Office 12.1.2 update fixes. According to notes provided by the company, "this update contains several improvements to enhance stability and performance."

Office 2004 11.5.1 does offer a bit more information for users. While it does offer "several improvements to enhance stability and performance," the update also includes fixes for vulnerabilities that an attacker can use to overwrite the contents of your computer's memory with malicious code.

Both updates are available from Microsoft's Mac Web site.
