PowerPoint Viewer 2003 JPEG vulnerability

The PowerPoint Viewer 2003 installation includes a
vulnerable version of gdiplus.dll.

I tried using the Office 2003 patches but these don't work
with the viewer.

Is there a patch available somewhere, or will a patched
installer be made available?

I don't have access to a Full Office 2003 installation.
