The issue is related to errors in handling objects in memory by the Chakra JavaScript engine in Microsoft Edge. This could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code using a specially crafted web page. The vulnerability can corrupt memory, enabling an attacker to gain the same user rights as the current user. If the current user has administrative rights, the attacker could take control of the affected system, install programs, view, change, or delete data, or create new accounts with full user rights. The vulnerability can be exploited through a web-based attack scenario, where an attacker hosts a specially crafted website or takes advantage of compromised websites that accept user-provided content.
