Descriptions
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted layout combinations involving DIV tags and HTML CSS float properties that trigger memory corruption, aka "HTML Rendering Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 hasta 6 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección mediante combinaciones de diseño artesanales implicando etiquetas DIV y propiedades float de HTML CSS que disparan una corrupción de memoria, también conocido como "Vulnerabilidad de corrupción de memoria al traducir HTML".
This vulnerability allows attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Internet Explorer. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page.
The specific vulnerability exists due to improper parsing of HTML CSS 'float' properties. By ordering specially crafted 'div' tags in a web page, memory corruption can occur leading to remote code execution.
