CVE-2016-0189
HighCVSS 7.5KEVSummary
Silniki JScript 5.8 i VBScript 5.7 oraz 5.8, używane w Internet Explorerze 9 do 11 oraz innych produktach Microsoftu, umożliwiają zdalnym atakującym wykonanie dowolnego kodu lub spowodowanie odmowy usługi (uszkodzenie pamięci) poprzez spreparowaną stronę internetową. Jest to podatność znana jako 'Podatność na uszkodzenie pamięci silnika skryptowego'.
Risk Assessment
Podatność ta może prowadzić do poważnych konsekwencji, takich jak zdalne wykonanie kodu, co stwarza zagrożenie dla integralności systemów organizacji oraz może prowadzić do utraty danych.
Recommendation
Zaleca się aktualizację oprogramowania do najnowszych wersji oraz wdrożenie odpowiednich zabezpieczeń, aby zminimalizować ryzyko związane z tą podatnością.

Original NVD description (English source)
The Microsoft (1) JScript 5.8 and (2) VBScript 5.7 and 5.8 engines, as used in Internet Explorer 9 through 11 and other products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, aka "Scripting Engine Memory Corruption Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2016-0187.
