Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 through 11 and Microsoft Edge allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption) via a crafted web site, aka "Microsoft Browser Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

The version of Microsoft Edge installed on the remote host is missing Cumulative Security Update 3148532. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Multiple remote code execution vulnerabilities exist due     to improper handling of objects in memory. An attacker     can exploit these vulnerabilities by convincing a user     to visit a specially crafted website, resulting in the     execution of arbitrary code in the context of the     current user. (CVE-2016-0154, CVE-2016-0155,     CVE-2016-0156, CVE-2016-0157)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists due to     improper enforcement of cross-domain policies. An     attacker can exploit this vulnerability by convincing a     user to visit a specially crafted website, allowing     the attacker to inject information from an outside     domain. (CVE-2016-0158)

  - A privilege escalation vulnerability exists due to     improper validation of JavaScript. An attacker can     exploit this, by convincing a user to visit a specially     crafted website, to run JavaScript at a higher privilege     level than is allowed. (CVE-2016-0161)

Note that CVE-2016-0155 will only affect Windows client installations running at the version 1511 level.

The version of Internet Explorer installed on the remote host is missing Cumulative Security Update 3148531. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, the majority of which are remote code execution vulnerabilities. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit these issues by convincing a user to visit a specially crafted website, resulting in the execution of arbitrary code in the context of the current user.
