CVE Descriptions

Integer underflow in the CDownloadSink class code in the Vector Markup Language (VML) component (VGX.DLL), as used in Internet Explorer 5.01, 6, and 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via compressed content with an invalid buffer size, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/25310/info Microsoft Internet Explorer is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied data. This issue occurs when rendering VML (Vector Markup Language) graphics. Attackers can leverage this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the currently logged-in user. Successful attacks may facilitate the remote compromise of affected computers. Failed attacks will likely cause denial-of-service conditions. To exploit this issue, an attacker must entice an unsuspecting user to view a malicious HTML document. A VML document containing the following construct pointing to a malicious compressed image file will trigger this issue: <v:rect> <v:imagedata src="http://www.example.com/compressed.emz"> </v:rect>
