There are security researchers in China? Just kidding... :-)

Security researchers in China have published detailed exploit code for
a new zero-day vulnerability in Microsoft's dominant Internet Explorer
browser.

The exploit, which was posted to XSec.org and Milw0rm.com Web sites,
could be easily modified to launch code execution attacks without any
user action on fully patched Windows machines.

Officials in the MSRC (Microsoft Security Response Center) could not be
reached to respond to the latest warning, which adds to a list of known
high-risk vulnerabilities that remain unpatched.
