Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Microsoft Internet Explorer version 9

Description A remote code execution issue exists due to improper memory object access. This could lead to memory corruption, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If the current user has administrative rights, an attacker could gain complete control of the system, enabling them to install programs, view, change, or delete data, or create new accounts with full user rights.

Recommendations For Microsoft Internet Explorer version 9, update to a newer version to mitigate the risk. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to crafted web sites to minimize the risk of exploitation.
