This security update, which was automatically downloaded and installed via Automatic Updates, which is now at  build number 9.0.11.

“This security update resolves three privately reported vulnerabilities in Internet Explorer. The vulnerabilities could allow remote code execution if a user views a specially crafted Web page using Internet Explorer. An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could gain the same user rights as the current user. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights,”

Microsoft stated in an official blog post.

The vulnerabilities impacted the IE 9 browser running on every supported version of Windows. Even so, earlier editions of Internet Explorer weren’t affected, nor was IE 10.

Microsoft has reported the security exposures as caused by a fault in the way that IE 9 accesses an target that’s been deleted or not correctly initialized. It affects three Internet Explorer components, named CFormElement, CTreePos and CTreeNode.
