Descriptions
The Microsoft (1) VBScript 5.7 and 5.8 and (2) JScript 5.7 and 5.8 engines, as used in Internet Explorer 8 through 11 and other products, allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted web site, aka "Scripting Engine Information Disclosure Vulnerability."
Los motores de Microsoft (1) VBScript 5.7 y 5.8 y (2) JScript 5.7 y 5.8, como se utilizan en Internet Explorer 8 hasta la versión 11 y otros productos, permiten a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible de la memoria de proceso a través de un sitio web manipulado, también conocida como 'Scripting Engine Information Disclosure Vulnerability'.
This vulnerability allows remote attackers to disclose the contents of memory on applications using the VBScript scripting language on vulnerable installations of Microsoft Windows. Microsoft Internet Explorer is an affected application. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file.
The specific flaw exists within the implementation of the VBScript CreateObject function. By supplying specially crafted parameters, an attacker can disclose the contents of memory. An attacker can use this information in conjunction with other vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current process.
