Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities were reported in Microsoft Edge. A remote user can cause arbitrary code to be executed on the target user's system. A remote user can obtain potentially sensitive information on the target system.
A remote user can create a specially crafted ActiveX control marked "safe for initialization" in an application or Microsoft Office document that hosts the related rendering engine that, when loaded by the target user, will trigger a memory corruption error in the JavaScript engine and execute arbitrary code on the target user's system [CVE-2017-8748, CVE-2017-8649, CVE-2017-8660].
A remote user can create specially crafted content that, when loaded by the target user, will access potentially sensitive information from a parent domain [CVE-2017-8736].
