Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 6 and 7 on Windows XP SP2 and SP3 Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 6 and 7 on Windows Server 2003 SP1 and SP2 Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7 on Windows Vista Gold and SP1 Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7 on Windows Server 2008

Description A remote code execution issue exists due to the way Internet Explorer accesses an object that has not been correctly initialized or has been deleted. An attacker could exploit this by constructing a specially crafted web page. When a user views the web page, it could allow remote code execution, potentially giving the attacker the same user rights as the logged-on user. If the user has administrative rights, the attacker could take complete control of the system, allowing them to install programs, view, change, or delete data, or create new accounts with full user rights.

Recommendations For Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6 on Windows XP SP2 and SP3, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6 on Windows Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7 on Windows XP SP2 and SP3, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7 on Windows Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7 on Windows Vista Gold and SP1, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. For Microsoft Internet Explorer version 7 on Windows Server 2008, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk.
