On the same day Microsoft is expected to re-release IE security update, a private
security research outfit is warning that the original patch actually introduced a
new exploitable vulnerability!!
The new warning comes less than a week after Microsoft offered a private hotfix
for the browser, because of a glitch that caused unexpected crashes. Also the
browser crash could cause a high-risk buffer overflow that could lead to code
execution attacks!!
