In record time, Microsoft released today an "out of band" patch for a significant security flaw in Internet Explorer that burst onto the scene 8 days ago.
We strongly recommend that all Windows users, especially Windows XP and Windows 2000 users, apply the patch as soon as possible. It is available on Windows Update and through Automatic Updates and by direct download through the security advisory for the vulnerability.
Here is the description of the vulnerability that it presents:
A remote code execution vulnerability exists as an invalid pointer reference in the data binding function of Internet Explorer. When data binding is enabled (which is the default state), it is possible under certain conditions for an object to be released without updating the array length, leaving the potential to access the deleted object's memory space. This can cause Internet Explorer to exit unexpectedly, in a state that is exploitable.
That's not quite enough to help you to write an exploit, but it's a lot more detail than they usually release.
Once again, run, don't walk, to your vulnerable PCs and apply these updates.
