Quote:Vulnerability exploited using malicious crafted web pages

Exploit developer Yushi Liang announced in a tweet that he discovered a zero-day remote code execution vulnerability in the Microsoft Edge web browser, with a Proof of Concept  (PoC) already available and an exploit in the works.

The zero-day Edge RCE vulnerability discovered by Liang could allow for arbitrary code execution once exploited by a potential attacker which, depending on the privilege level of the logged in account, could install programs on the compromised machine, create admin accounts, as well as exfiltrate and modify data.
