Microsoft Internet Explorer is prone to a heap buffer-overflow vulnerability..
The vulnerability arises because of the way Internet Explorer tries to instantiate certain COM objects as ActiveX controls.
An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition.
