  - Processes NULL bytes, which allows to disclose content from the process
    memory.

  - Accesses an object that has been deleted, which allows to corrupt memory
    using Internet Explorer Developer Toolbar.

  - Accesses an object that does not exist, when handling the 'Col' element.

  - Accesses an object that has been deleted, when handling Same ID Property,
   'Title' element, 'OnBeforeDeactivate' event, 'insertRow' method and
   'OnRowsInserted' event allows to corrupt memory.

  - Accesses an undefined memory location, when handling the
   'insertAdjacentText' method allows to corrupt memory.

  - Handles 'Scrolling' event.");
