Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Intuit QuickBooks versions 2009 through 2012

Description A memory leak issue exists in the intu-help-qb handlers within HelpAsyncPluggableProtocol.dll. This occurs when Internet Explorer is used and a URI contains multiple references to the same name-value pair, allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service due to memory consumption.

Recommendations For Intuit QuickBooks versions 2009 through 2012, consider restricting the use of Internet Explorer or avoiding URIs with multiple references to the same name-value pair until a fix is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
