The Vector Markup Language (VML) implementation in vgx.dll in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 through 8 does not properly handle objects in memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by accessing an object that (1) was not properly initialized or (2) is deleted, aka "VML Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
