Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Microsoft Internet Explorer, which could be exploited by attackers to take complete control of an affected system. These issues are caused by memory corruption and input validation errors when accessing certain objects or processing print previews, which could be exploited by attackers to crash an affected application or execute arbitrary code by tricking a user into visiting a malicious web page.
