Synopsis
Arbitrary code can be executed on the remote host through the installed VBScript Scripting Engine.Description
The installed version of the VBScript Scripting Engine allows an attacker to specify a Help file location when displaying a dialog box on a web page. If a user can be tricked into pressing the F1 key while such a dialog box is being displayed, an attacker can leverage this to cause the Windows Help System to load a specially crafted Help file, resulting in execution of arbitrary code subject to the user's privileges.Solution
Microsoft has released a set of patches for Windows 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008, 7, and 2008 R2.See Also
