Dear porkythepig@xxxxxxxx, This is a case of 'real' stack structure overflow, not stack buffer overflow (stack overrun) as you maybe think. The process' stack is exhausted because of recursive call. Exploitation of this situation to execute code may be hard, if possible. -- ~/ZARAZA http://www.security.nnov.ru/ --Thursday, February 16, 2006, 8:14:50 PM, you wrote to bugtraq@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: pap> It also doesn't need the call to be strictly recurrent, any infinte pap> call-loop (even across JScript and VBScript functions) or finite pap> but deep enough to consume all the IE thread stack memory will pap> exploit this vulnerability as well. pap> DoS attack as well as remote code execution are possible.
