  "title": "DLL Loading Remote Code Execution Vulnerability",
  "description": "\u003Cp\u003EA remote code execution vulnerability exists when Internet Explorer improperly validates input before loading dynamic link library (DLL) files. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ETo exploit the vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the target system and then run a specially crafted application.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThe updates address the vulnerability by correcting how Internet Explorer validates input before loading DLL files.\u003C/p\u003E",
