The Chakra JavaScript scripting engine in Microsoft Edge allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, aka "Scripting Engine Memory Corruption Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-7200, CVE-2016-7201, CVE-2016-7202, CVE-2016-7203, CVE-2016-7208, CVE-2016-7242, and CVE-2016-7243.
El motor de secuencia de comandos Chakra JavaScript en Microsoft Edge permite a atacantes remotos ejecutar un código arbitrario o provocar una denegación de servicio (corrupción de memoria) a través de un sitio web manipulado, vulnerabilidad también conocida como "Scripting Engine Memory Corruption Vulnerability", una vulnerabilidad distinta a CVE-2016-7200, CVE-2016-7201, CVE-2016-7202, CVE-2016-7203, CVE-2016-7208, CVE-2016-7242 y CVE-2016-7243.
In Chakra, function calls can sometimes take an extra internal argument, using the flag CallFlags_ExtraArg. The global eval function makes assumptions about the type of this extra arg, and casts it to a FrameDisplay object. If eval is called from a location in code where an extra parameter is added, for example, a Proxy function trap, and the extra parameter is of a different type, this can lead to type confusion.
