Vulnerability detected in Internet Explorer
By SC Staff
Excerpt:
Ivan Arce, CTO of Core Security Technologies, said: “This is a tangible threat to millions of individuals and organisations that use Internet Explorer to browse the web, and the discovery of this vulnerability in IE highlights the reality that no vendor is immune to the perils of client application security.
“This issue also illustrates the fact that a group of seemingly unrelated weaknesses can be combined to construct attacks that are effective beyond the narrow scope of exploiting just a single bug. Likewise, the available workarounds show that, beyond simply deploying patches, a combination of security defences and mitigation strategies can effectively prevent attacks.”
