Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 y Microsoft Edge permiten a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria) a través de un sitio web manipulado, también conocida como 'Microsoft Browser Memory Corruption Vulnerability', una vulnerabilidad diferente a CVE-2015-6140, CVE-2015-6143, CVE-2015-6153, CVE-2015-6158, CVE-2015-6159 y CVE-2015-6160.
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 or open a malicious file.
The vulnerability relates to how Internet Explorer processes style attributes. By manipulating a document's elements an attacker can force an array allocated by a CStyleAttrArray object to be processed as if it were a CAttrArray object. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
