CVE-2017-8662

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Microsoft Edge (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to the validation of strings in specific scenarios, potentially allowing an attacker to read sensitive data from memory. This could facilitate bypassing Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR). While it does not enable arbitrary code execution on its own, it could be used in combination with another vulnerability, such as a remote code execution vulnerability, to achieve arbitrary code execution on a target system.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
