Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 and possibly other versions allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code by instantiating COM objects as ActiveX controls, including (1) imskdic.dll (Microsoft IME), (2) chtskdic.dll (Microsoft IME), and (3) msoe.dll (Outlook), which leads to memory corruption. NOTE: it is not certain whether the issue is in Internet Explorer or the individual DLL files.

Microsoft Internet Explorer is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability.
This issue occurs because the application fails to load a DLL library when instantiated as an ActiveX control.
An attacker may exploit this issue to crash Internet Explorer, effectively denying service to legitimate users, and may cause arbitrary code to run within the context of the application.
