Descriptions
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 through 9 does not properly handle objects in memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by accessing a deleted object, aka "HTML Layout Remote Code Execution Vulnerability."
Microsoft Internet Explorer v7 hasta v9, no maneja apropiadamente los objetos en memoria, lo que permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código de su elección accediendo a objetos borrados, también conocido como "HTML Layout Remote Code Execution Vulnerability."
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Internet Explorer. User interaction is required in that a target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The flaw exists within MSHTML, specifically the handling of an HTML time t:MEDIA element. A t:MEDIA element can be manipulated such that when the page is refreshed a reference to a freed CDispNode object remains allowing the repurpose of this region. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code under the context of the process.
