Description:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in Internet Explorer, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

1) An error in the way HTML with certain layout combinations is interpreted can be exploited to corrupt memory via a specially crafted web page.

2) An error in the way the "by" property of an "animateMotion" SVG element is handled can be exploited to corrupt memory via a specially crafted web page assigning other DOM elements to the property.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities may allow execution of arbitrary code.

Solution:
Apply patches.
