[Full-Disclosure] IE exploit runs code from graphics?

["Larry Seltzer" <larry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

From http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,,1617045,00.asp: 

"Analysts at NetSec Inc., a managed security services provider, began seeing 
indications
of the compromises early Thursday morning and have since seen a large number of
identical attacks on their customers' networks. The attack uses a novel vector: 
embedded
code hidden in graphics on Web pages... NetSec officials said the attack seems 
to
exploit a vulnerability in Internet Explorer."
