Descriptions
VBScript.dll in the Microsoft VBScript 5.6 through 5.8 engine, as used in Internet Explorer 8 through 11 and other products, allows remote attackers to bypass the ASLR protection mechanism via a crafted web site, aka "VBScript ASLR Bypass."
VBScript.dll en el motor Microsoft VBScript 5.6 hasta 5.8, utilizado en Internet Explorer 8 hasta 11 y otros productos, permite a atacantes remotos evadir el mecanismo de protección ASLR a través de un sitio web manipulado, también conocido como 'evasión de ASLR de VBScript.'
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Windows. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The vulnerability relates to how VBScript processes capturing groups in regular expressions. By performing a search using a regular expression that has an unusual form, an attacker can reveal data stored in the memory of the current process.
