Troj/SWFDL-I is a variation of the Poison Ivy Trojan that is used in web-based attacks associated with a 'zero day' hole in Internet Explorer to infect targeted Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2003 and 2008 computer systems running the Internet Explorer versions 6, 7, 8 and 9. Troj/SWFDL-I exploits the Java vulnerability that affects most supported versions of Internet Explorer and Windows. A remote code execution vulnerability exists in an Internet Explorer function to access an object that has been deleted or authorization of the current user on Internet Explorer. The vulnerability can be remotely exploited using a website produced to target the security hole.
