  Microsoft Security Advisory (903144) A COM Object (javaprxy.dll) Could Cause Internet Explorer to Unexpectedly Exit http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/advisory/903144.mspx
  • Apparently fixed in (superseded by) ms05-037. That fixes the javaprxy.dll instance. There are other exploitable COM objects:
    NSFOCUS SA2005-02 : Microsoft IE Devenum.dll COM Instantiation Remote Code Execution Vulnerability http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/407777
  • Apparently fixed in (superseded by) ms05-038. Still, IE handling of such things is not fixed: only a few more "known bad" COM objects were "fixed" (adding "kill bit"). There are more, see e.g.
    COM objects and MSIE vulnerabilities recap + additional fix http://lists.grok.org.uk/pipermail/full-disclosure/2005-August/036232.html
    Microsoft Security Advisory (906267) A COM Object (Msdds.dll) Could Cause Internet Explorer to Unexpectedly Exit http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/advisory/906267.mspx
    Microsoft Internet Explorer can use any COM object http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/680526
  • Apparently fixed in (superseded by) ms05-052, which sets many more "kill bit"s, and also introduces additional checks before a COM object is allowed to run; but is still not fixed, yet more "kill bit"s set in ms05-054 (which also fixes the kill bit mechanism!); yet more "kill bit"s in ms06-013, ms06-021 and ms06-042.
  • And there are more:
    Multiple COM objects cause memory corruption in Microsoft Internet Explorer http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/959049

    MS Windows DRM software Memory Corruption http://lists.grok.org.uk/pipermail/full-disclosure/2006-October/049923.html
    This last one not fixed for over a year, and seen to allow execute-any-code:
    Microsoft Windows Media Digital Rights Management ActiveX Control Buffer Overflow Vulnerability http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/26630
  • The "daxctle" ones above apparently fixed in ms06-067 with more "kill bit"s.
  • IE7 has an ActiveX Opt-in feature, providing a modicum of protection. But note that users who "have enabled these COM objects in previous versions of IE will have them enabled in IE7"; and anyway many "useful" controls are left enabled by default.
  • Yet more "kill bit"s in ms07-016 and (even for IE7, without ActiveX Opt-in mitigation) in ms07-027, and apparently in every IE update e.g. in ms07-033 ms07-045 ms07-057 ms07-069 ms08-010 and in some MSOffice updates e.g. in ms08-017 and of course in ms08-023 ms08-032 .
  • Yet more "kill bit"s e.g. in ms09-055 ms10-008 .

• ms02-065 contains the caveat ... a patched system could be made vulnerable again [by] visit a web site or open an HTML mail .... We have a buffer overrun (execute-any-code) vulnerability, to be exploited by a (malicious) Web page or email; there is a patch that can be undone by a (malicious) Web page or email. Just as exploitable after the patch.
  It also contains the workaround: make sure you have no trusted publishers, including Microsoft. You should not blindly accept and run MS code: you may want to apply that to the whole of IE and Windows.
