MS14-012 Internet Explorer TextRange Use-After-Free

MS14-012 Internet Explorer TextRange Use-After-Free

This module exploits a use-after-free vulnerability found in Internet Explorer. The flaw was most likely introduced back in 2013, therefore only certain builds of MSHTML are affected. In our testing with IE9, these vulnerable builds appear to be between 9.0.8112.16496 and 9.0.8112.16533, which implies August 2013 until early March 2014 (before the patch).
