Security readout for executives and security teams
This is a Microsoft scripting engine memory corruption flaw. A user who visits a malicious website with affected Internet Explorer or a product using the affected engines could expose the system to remote code execution or a crash. Exposure is most likely where legacy Internet Explorer 9, 10, or 11 remains usable, or where applications depend on Microsoft JScript or VBScript engines. The bundle does not enumerate all affected other products. Treat as high priority for legacy Microsoft browser environments because the impact includes remote code execution. Urgency depends on whether affected Internet Explorer or scripting-engine-dependent products remain present. Mitigation focus: Apply Microsoft security updates referenced in MS16-063 and MS16-069.; Prioritize systems where Internet Explorer 9 through 11 is still used.; Check Microsoft guidance for other affected products using these engines..
