Due to the MS13-061 security bulletin, all currently supported versions of Exchange got a Security Update or a Rollup Update which also includes the security update.

The vulnerabilities exist in the WebReady Document Viewing and Data Loss Prevention features of Microsoft Exchange Server. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution in the security context of the transcoding service on the Exchange server if a user previews a specially crafted file using Outlook Web App (OWA).

The Rollup Updates also includes a few additional fixes, so make sure you review their corresponding KB article too before applying them.
