Descriptions

Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 and earlier, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash from "memory corruption") via certain malformed Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) elements that trigger heap-based buffer overflows, as demonstrated using the "<STYLE>@;/*" string, possibly due to a missing comment terminator that may cause an invalid length to trigger a large memory copy operation, aka the "CSS Heap Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Internet Explorer 6.1 SP1 y anteriores, y posiblemente otras versiones, permiten a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (caída de aplicación por "corrupción de memoria") mediante ciertos elementos de Hoja de Estilos en Cascada (CSS), como se ha demostrado usanto la cadena "<STYLE>@;/*", posiblemente debido a un terminador de comentario ausente que puede causar una longitud inválida que dispare una operación de copia de memoria grande.
