Subject: IE / Outlook / MS SHLWAPI Render - more trivial crash

Hola:

Well, as it seems that is the Microsoft Crash mounth, let see another one:

---------------------------------

<html>
<form>
<input type crash>
</form>
</html>

---------------------------------

This will crash IE with the following error:

"Unhandled exception in iexplore.exe (SHLWAPI.DLL): 0xC0000005: Access
Violation"

It's a null pointer overwrite, so it's not easly exploitable...

This HTML also crash Outlook, Frontpage, and all the Microsoft
programs that use the shlwapi.dll library to render web code.

Plain HTML is a dangerous language :)
