How is this a high-level vulnerability when a user must launch the file, simply resulting in possible code execution within that user's interactive credentials? If you're going to get them to launch a file, why not code up a nice juicy .exe for them and not bother with the other stuff?

Or even better, since it's an MDB file, code it up in an Access module- that way it won't even throw an exception.

A bug, yes- a security vulnerability, no.
