  IE flaw puts Windows XP SP2 at risk
Time: 11:18 EST/16:18 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: John Quigley

A flaw has been discovered in Microsoft's Internet Explorer that could launch a remote attack on systems running Windows XP with Service Pack 2, according to an advisory issued Thursday by security firm eEye Digital Security. The flaw, which also affects systems running Windows XP, is found in the default installations of IE, according to eEye's advisory. "The flaw is not wormable, but allows for the remote execution (of code) with some level of end-user intervention," said Mike Puterbaugh, eEye's senior director of product marketing. The discovery of this IE flaw comes just over a month after the software giant issued a cumulative patch addressing three vulnerabilities for IE.
