Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Internet Explorer (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is caused by a buffer overflow in dynamic memory, allowing a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service via a specially crafted website. This could corrupt memory, enabling an attacker to execute code in the context of the current user, potentially gaining the same user rights as the current user. If the current user has administrative rights, the attacker could take complete control of the affected system, install programs, view, change, or delete data, or create new accounts with full user rights.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
