MS12-076 Excel SerAuxErrBar Heap Overflow Vulnerability

There was a Heap Overflow vulnerability (CVE-2012-1885) in Excel while parsing SerAuxErrBar structure from xls (Excel's old binary format) files. So I decided to took on it (a little bit analysis). But I faced with reality that there is no public debugging symbols for Excel :( When I read advisory [1] I don't understand anything as always 'cause Microsoft only says "A remote code execution vulnerability exists in the way that Microsoft Excel handles specially crafted Excel files. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take..". That's shit description :( Then I look for SerAuxErrBar structure and found something on MSDN that describes this structure [2]. But there was another question. "How one could create SerAuxErrBar structure?".
