Descriptions

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted website using Javascript that creates, modifies, deletes, and accesses document objects using the tags property, which triggers heap corruption, related to uninitialized or deleted objects, a different issue than CVE-2007-3902 and CVE-2007-3903, and a variant of "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Microsoft Internet Explorer versiones 5.01 hasta 7, permite a los atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario por medio de un sitio web diseñado usando Javascript que crea, modifica, elimina y accede a objetos de documento utilizando la propiedad tags, que desencadena una corrupción de pila, relacionada con objetos no inicializados o eliminados, un problema diferente de CVE-2007-3902 y CVE-2007-3903, y una variante de "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability".

This vulnerability allows remote 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 flaw exists in the handling of document objects that have been created, modified, deleted then accessed by JavaScript. By storing references to document nodes, then removing them by a separate reference, the document model in memory becomes unstable. Accessing the tags property while the document is in this unstable condition results in a heap corruption, allowing the execution of arbitrary code.
