Also corrected, in the Security Update Deployment section, the registry key for verification of the update for Internet Explorer 7 for all supported x64-based editions of Windows XP.Summary: This security update resolves four privately reported vulnerabilities and one publicly disclosed vulnerability in Internet Explorer. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user views a specially crafted Web page using Internet Explorer. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights. An ActiveX control built with Microsoft Active Template Library (ATL) headers could also allow remote code execution; for more information about this issue, see the subsection, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Related to This Security Update, in this section.
