MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Microsoft Internet Explorer 11
Description
The issue is related to an elevation of privilege vulnerability. It occurs when Internet Explorer does not properly validate permissions under specific conditions, potentially allowing script to be run with elevated privileges. This vulnerability by itself does not allow arbitrary code to be run. However, it could be used in conjunction with another vulnerability, such as a remote code execution vulnerability, that could take advantage of the elevated privileges when running arbitrary code.
Recommendations
For Microsoft Internet Explorer 11, at the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
