Issue:
A new version of the Microsoft VM is available, which includes all previously released fixes for the VM, as well as fixes for 8 newly reported security issues. The attack vectors for all of the new issues would likely be the same. An attacker would create a web page that, when opened, exploits the desired vulnerability, and either host it on a web page or send it to a user as an HTML mail.
