Summary
The scripting engine in Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a web page that contains a recurrent call to an infinite loop in Javascript or VBscript, which consumes the stack, as demonstrated by resetting the "location" variable within the loop.
Exploit prediction (EPSS)
14.28% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 97% of all scored CVEs.
