| Detailed Description |
The Hotfix (MS05-025, KB883939) for the 'Jun. 2005 Cumulative Patch for Internet Explorer' has not been applied. This patch replaces the one that is provided in Microsoft Security Bulletin MS05-020(KB890923), which is itself a cumulative update and resolves newly discovered public vulnerability:
1) PNG Image Rendering Memory Corruption Vulnerability (CAN-2005-1211): Remote Code Execution
2) XML Redirect Information Disclosure Vulnerability (CAN-2002-0648): Information Disclosure
If a user is logged on with administrative privileges, an attacker who successfully exploited the most severe of these vulnerabilities could take complete control of an affected system, including installing programs; viewing, changing, or deleting data; or creating new accounts with full privileges. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer privileges on the system would be at less risk than users who operate with administrative privileges.
