Microsoft Edge allows a remote code execution vulnerability due to the way it accesses objects in memory, aka "Scripting Engine Memory Corruption Vulnerability".
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
