CVE-2010-0247

Status: ModifiedHigh (9.3)—
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 SP4, 6, and 6 SP1 does not properly handle objects in memory, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by accessing an object that (1) was not properly initialized or (2) is deleted, leading to memory corruption, aka "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
CVSS

Version: 2.0
Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C
Base score: 9.3
Exploitation probability (EPSS)

Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 19%
Percentile among all scored CVEs: 97
Score date: 10/9/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
