<html><body><p>Resolves vulnerabilities in the VBScript and JScript scripting engines in Windows that could allow remote code execution.</p><h2>Summary</h2><div>This security update resolves vulnerabilities in the VBScript and JScript scripting engines in Windows. The more severe of these vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if an attacker hosts a specially crafted website that is designed to exploit the vulnerabilities through Internet Explorer (or if an attacker leverages a compromised website or a website that accepts or hosts user-provided content or advertisements) and then convinces a user to view the website. An attacker could also embed an ActiveX control that is marked as “safe for initialization” in an application or a Microsoft Office document that uses the Internet Explorer rendering engine to direct the user to the specially crafted website. <br /><br />To learn more about the vulnerability, see <a href=“https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/ms15-108” target=“_self”>Microsoft Security Bulletin MS15-108</a>. </div><h2>More Information</h2><div><span>Important </span><ul><li>If you install a language pack after you install this update, you must reinstall this update.
