Descriptions

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 does not properly handle objects in memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by accessing an object that (1) was not properly initialized or (2) is deleted, leading to memory corruption, aka "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2009-3671.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 no maneja de manera apropiada objetos en memoria, lo que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección accediendo a un objeto que (1) no fue iniciado adecuadamente o (2) está borrado, provocando una corrupción de memoria. También conocido como "Vulnerabilidad Uninitialized Memory Corruption", una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2009-3671.

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 web page.
The specific flaw exists during deallocation of a circular dereference for a CAttrArray object. If the CAttrArray object has been freed prior to the tearing down of the webpage, the application will access the freed memory during the deallocation of the circular dereference. This can lead to code execution under the context of the currently logged in user.
