| Detailed Description |
The Hotfix (MS13-055, 2846071) for 'Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer' has not been applied.
This security update resolves seventeen privately reported vulnerabilities in Internet Explorer. The most severe vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user views a specially crafted webpage using Internet Explorer. An attacker who successfully exploited the most severe of these vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the current user. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.
- Shift JIS Character Encoding Vulnerability (CVE-2013-3166)
A cross-site-scripting (XSS) vulnerability exists in Internet Explorer that could allow information disclosure. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a specially crafted webpage that could allow information disclosure if a user viewed the webpage. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could view content from another domain or Internet Explorer zone.
- Internet Explorer Memory Corruption Vulnerability (CVE-2013-3115, CVE-2013-3143, CVE-2013-3144, CVE-2013-3145, CVE-2013-3146, CVE-2013-3147, CVE-2013-3148, CVE-2013-3149, CVE-2013-3150, CVE-2013-3151, CVE-2013-3152, CVE-2013-3153, CVE-2013-3161, CVE-2013-3162, CVE-2013-3163, CVE-2013-3164)
Remote code execution vulnerabilities exist when Internet Explorer improperly accesses an object in memory. These vulnerabilities may corrupt memory in such a way that an attacker could execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user.
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of this condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.
