Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, aka "Internet Explorer Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar código arbitrario o causar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria) a través de una página web manipulada, también conocida como "Internet Explorer Memory Corruption Vulnerability".
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 keeps track of table rows when performing layout of HTML tables. By manipulating a document's elements an attacker can cause Internet Explorer to write beyond the end of an array of pointers to CTableRow objects. An attacker can leverage this vulnerability to execute code under the context of the current process.
