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

Description The issue is caused by a buffer overflow. It allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) by using a specially crafted website. The vulnerability occurs when Internet Explorer improperly accesses objects in memory, potentially corrupting memory and allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user. If the user has administrative rights, the attacker could take control of the system, install programs, view or modify data, or create new accounts with full user rights.
