Tuesday’s Interesting IE Patches
Microsoft released another heap of patches today, twelve to be exact. Two of the more interesting patches resolve Internet Explorer vulnerabilities.
The first of the two Internet Explorer issues is documented as CVE-2011-0096, addressing XSS-identical results due to a flaw in the browser’s code.
The patch arrives eleven days after the Microsoft advisory release providing some sort of mitigation along with a “Fix it” installer. And it arrives 24 days after the Chinese zine release date. The writeup was originally authored by d4rkwind and added to a 5th edition Chinese mag “Ph4nt0m Webzine 0x05”.
