Internet Explorer Remote Code Execution Vulnerability
Description: A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Internet Explorer improperly validates hyperlinks before loading executable libraries.
An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
An attacker could host a specially crafted website designed to exploit the vulnerability through Internet Explorer and then convince a user to view the website. The attacker could also take advantage of compromised websites
