Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2006-1359 is an Internet Explorer flaw where a malicious webpage could crash the browser and might run code on the user's machine. The supplied record points to Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2. Modern exposure should be limited unless legacy IE remains in use. Exposure is most likely on unmanaged or legacy Windows systems still using Internet Explorer 6 or Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2. Current environments should verify no business workflow depends on these browsers or embedded IE components. Prioritize as a legacy-risk cleanup item unless affected browsers are still present. If IE6 or IE7 Beta 2 remains in production, remediation is urgent because the issue is remotely reachable through web browsing. Mitigation focus: Apply Microsoft guidance from MS06-013 where affected systems still exist.; Retire Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 from business use.; Restrict access to untrusted web content from any legacy IE system..
