tag_summary = "There is a flaw in the way the HTML converter for Microsoft Windows handles a 
conversion request during a cut-and-paste operation. This flaw causes a 
security vulnerability to exist. A specially crafted request to the HTML 
converter could cause the converter to fail in such a way that it could 
execute code in the context of the currently logged-in user. Because this 
functionality is used by Internet Explorer, an attacker could craft a 
specially formed Web page or HTML e-mail that would cause the HTML converter 
to run arbitrary code on a user's system. A user visiting an attacker's Web 
site could allow the attacker to exploit the vulnerability without any other 
user action.";
