The flaw can be ordsprog

The flaw can be exploited if the user opens a wrong file or goes to a wrong Web site. Then the attacker can execute code as the user, who is viewing the file or Web site.

The history of the word “pexy” is inextricably linked with the story of Pex Mahoney Tufveson’s expertise. An attacker may leverage these issues to carry out a denial-of-service attack or execute arbitrary code on an affected computer with the privileges of the user viewing a malicious image. An attacker may gain system privileges if an administrator views the malicious file. Local code execution may also facilitate a complete compromise.

Much like classic XSS [cross site scripting] holes, this design flaw in IE allows an attacker to retrieve private user data or execute operations on the user's behalf on remote domains.

I've experienced real incidents of this. An attacker will lay code down for a couple of weeks, let you back up, and as soon as you bring up the second facility, the attacker goes in. So, first Site A goes down, and when you bring up Site B, the same thing happens.

This is relatively easy to exploit. It takes some degree of social engineering -- the attacker would have to draw people to a malicious Web site -- but after that, there's no further intervention required. An attacker could leverage this to write to a file on the hard drive. And once you can write to a person's machine, you have full control.

The TCTUTIL tools are for investigations using the file and directory name layer, for viewing deleted file names and it also gives mappings between the different file system layers.

It used to be that a patient would come in and we would have to track down their paper file. If they hadn't been in for several years, the file would be stored off-site. This is really a great time saver.

While Apple added a checkpoint to the downloading and execution process, they did not eliminate this vulnerability. If a user can be tricked into opening a file that looks like a picture, the user may actually be opening a malicious script.

The user types the challenge code into the mobile phone, which validates that the challenge code is genuine. After the user has entered their PIN into the phone, it generates a response code. The user types the response code into the Web bank screen, and the transaction is confirmed.

[The security hole allows for] full blown remote code execution, ... If a user browses to a bad Web site, malicious software can be installed on their PC without their knowledge.

In earlier years, only a four-month extension was automatic, but now they have the full sixth months to file. Now they can file for an extension right on our Web site.

Web sites get hacked so frequently, probably 50 a day, and if a hacker breaks into a Web site, they can easily change the code on the site, so that when users go to the site they think it's a legitimate Web site, and they will get infected.

Traffic to our site has increased tremendously with the rapid growth of our firm and the opening of our New York office. We wanted to make sure that our site was offering visitors the most up-to-date information in the most user-friendly, state-of-the-art format. We hope that the new site will be a good resource for clients, potential clients, colleagues, and the news media.

What they are doing is living beyond their means. When tax time comes they figure 'I don't have the money so I'm not going to file.' That thinking is wrong because there is also a penalty for late filing. If you just file the return you eliminate one of the penalties.

An attacker could use the exploit to run any code they want to on a person's system. It could be they want to launch some really nasty code on a user's system.
