Macros are executable code (Visual Basic in Excel, I will assume it's
the same in Word). That's not a vulnerability per se, it's the point
of it. If someone wants to write malicious code, there is no MS patch
that can prevent him from doing it - unless the patch disables macros
altogether.

Are we OT yet?
