Description

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 and 7 does not initialize certain data structures during execution of the createElement method, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via crafted JavaScript code, as demonstrated by setting the (1) outerHTML or (2) value property of an object returned by createElement.
