Technical Description
Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Microsoft Windows, which could be exploited by attackers to take complete control of an affected system or bypass security restrictions.
The first flaw is due to an error in the way the XMLHTTP control applies IE security settings to a redirected data stream returned in response to HTTP requests, which could be exploited by malicious people to read cookies and data from another security zone or domain in Internet Explorer.
The second flaw is due to a buffer overflow error in the Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) control when processing malformed data, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a specially crafted web page.
