Synopsis

A specially crafted web-page can trigger a use-after-free vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 9. I did not investigate this vulnerability thoroughly, so I cannot speculate on the potential impact or exploitability.

Known affected software and attack vectors

Microsoft Internet Explorer 9

An attacker would need to get a target user to open a specially crafted web-page. Disabling Java­Script should prevent an attacker from triggering the vulnerable code path.

Details

This bug was found back when I had very little knowledge and tools to do analysis on use-after-free bugs, so I have no details to share. ZDI revealed that this was a use-after-free vulnerability in their advisory. I have included a number of reports created using a predecessor of Bug­Id below.

  <head>
    <script defer>
      var o­Element = document.get­Element­By­Id("ruby");
      var o­Element = o­Element.parent­Node.remove­Child(o­Element);
      document.write("<abbr></abbr>");
      document.document­Element.offset­Top;
      set­Timeout("location.reload()", 100);
