ms11-009

MS11-009 is a Microsoft security bulletin addressing a vulnerability in the JScript and VBScript scripting engines. This important-rated update resolves a privately reported issue that could allow information disclosure if a user visits a specially crafted website. The vulnerability affects how the scripting engines handle certain scripts, potentially exposing data. An attacker cannot force users to visit malicious sites; instead, they must convince users to click a link, typically in an email or instant message. The update is part of Microsoft's February 2011 Patch Tuesday release. Discussions on WindowsForum.com cover the bulletin details, severity, and the need to apply the update to protect against remote code execution risks.
