Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, aka "Internet Explorer Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

The specific version of Mac OS X that the system is running is reportedly affected by the following vulnerabilities:

- Multiple Apple products contain a flaw in AppleUSBNetworking. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when handling data from USB devices. This may allow a physically present attacker to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1734)

- Multiple Apple products contain a flaw in FontParser. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when handling encoded fonts that contain invalid characters in specially crafted PDF files. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1740)

- Multiple Apple products contain a flaw in IOHIDFamily. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated. This may allow a local attacker to corrupt memory and disclosure arbitrary memory locations. (CVE-2016-1748)

- Multiple Apple products contain an unspecified flaw in the kernel that may allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service. No further details have been provided. (CVE-2016-1752)

- Multiple Apple products contain a use-after-free error in the Kernel. This may allow a local attacker to dereference already freed memory and gain elevated privileges. No further details have been provided. (CVE-2016-1750)

- Multiple Apple products contain a flaw in the Kernel that is due to the system inappropriately granting execute permissions to applications. This may allow a local attacker to bypass code signing checks. (CVE-2016-1751)

- Multiple Apple products contain a race condition that is triggered during the creation of new suid processes. This may allow a local attacker to gain 'root' privileges. (CVE-2016-1757)

- Multiple Apple products contain an unspecified NULL pointer dereference flaw in the kernel that may allow a local attacker to gain elevated privileges. No further details have been provided. (CVE-2016-1756)

- Multiple Apple products contain a flaw in the Kernel. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated. This may allow a local attacker to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1754)

- Multiple Apple products contain a use-after-free condition in the AppleKeyStore userclient. The issue is triggered when handling simultaneous threads where one tries to close the userclient while the other tries to make an external method call. This may allow a local attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges. (CVE-2016-1755)

- Multiple Apple products contain an unspecified out-of-bounds read flaw in the kernel that may allow a local attacker to disclosure arbitrary content in the memory. No further details have been provided. (CVE-2016-1758)

- Apple Mac OS X contains a flaw in Bluetooth. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated. This may allow a local attacker to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1736)

- Apple Mac OS X contains multiple flaws in Carbon. The issues are triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when handling DFONT files. This may allow a context-dependent attacker to corrupt memory and potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1737)

- Apple Mac OS X contains a flaw in dyld that is triggered as code-signed applications do not properly detect manipulation. This may potentially allow an attacker to tamper with a signed application's code without invalidating its signature, effectively allowing them to bypass code signing checks. (CVE-2016-1738)

- Apple Mac OS X contains a flaw in the IOGen575Shared::new_texture() function in the Intel HD 3000 Graphics driver. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when handling specially crafted messages. This may allow a local attacker to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1743)

- Apple Mac OS X contains a use-after-free condition in the Intel Graphics driver. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated. This may allow a local attacker to dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code with elevated privileges. (CVE-2016-1744)

- Apple Mac OS X contains an unspecified NULL pointer dereference flaw in IOFireWireFamily. This may allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service. (CVE-2016-1745)

- Apple Mac OS X contains a flaw in the IOGraphicsFamily interface. The issue is triggered as user-supplied input is not properly validated when handling user-supplied function addresses. This may allow a local attacker to corrupt memory and cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-1746)

- Microsoft Internet Explorer contains a use-after-free error in the handling of CMediaEngine objects. With a specially crafted web page, a context-dependent attacker can dereference already freed memory and potentially execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-0166)

The version of Internet Explorer installed on the remote host is missing Cumulative Security Update 3148531. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, the majority of which are remote code execution vulnerabilities. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these issues by convincing a user to visit a specially crafted website, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the current user.
