Extended Description

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 Developer Tools ('iedvtool.dll') ActiveX control is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability that stems from a memory-corruption issue. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the application, usually Internet Explorer, using the ActiveX control.
