Microsoft Security Bulletin MS06-002: Vulnerability in Embedded Web Fonts Could Allow Remote Code Execution (908519) | |
|

| Time: 01:00 EST/06:00 GMT | News Source: ActiveWin.com | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
|
A remote code execution vulnerability exists in Windows because of the way that it handles malformed embedded Web fonts. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by constructing a malicious embedded Web font that could potentially allow remote code execution if a user visited a malicious Web site or viewed a specially crafted e-mail message. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take complete control of an affected system. | ||
