One IE flaw leads to another

« on: May 20, 2006, 13:33:24 pm »

As researchers pored over a vulnerability found within Microsoft's Internet Explorer less than a week ago, they discovered a totally new IE flaw.

The new bug could be used to launch code execution attacks. Microsoft acknowledged that the vulnerability, found by Andreas Sandblad of Secunia, is not just a successful exploit of the flaw uncovered last week by Michal Zalewski.

It was originally believed that the flaw found by Sandblad was related to the one discovered by Zalewski, but a Microsoft representative confirmed that the two vulnerabilities are separate.

"During analysis, Secunia discovered a variant of this vulnerability," security company Secunia wrote on its Web site on Tuesday, referring to the bug found by Zalewski. The company confirmed the problem "on a fully patched system with Internet Explorer 6.0 and Microsoft Windows XP SP2."

Both flaws could be used to corrupt a PC's memory if the computer's user can be tricked into visiting a malicious Web site, Secunia said.

Secunia added that Microsoft is working on a patch.

Το κακό είναι πως τη βαπτίσανε beta έκδοση και δικαιολογούν τα flaws.
Έπρεπε όλοι αυτοί που τα βρήκαν να περίμεναν μέχρι να βγει η κανονική έκδοση στα Vista.
Εκτός κι αν κάποια που βρέθηκαν δεν ανακοινώθηκαν...
