The flaws are present in the Microsoft ActiveX Controls and Yahoo! Music Jukebox product, which fails to handle a specially crafted Web page with Internet Explorer, instantiating the ActiveX control. Successful exploitation allows attackers to log on to the system and take complete control of the affected system.
