Neowin reports that a day after the recent out-of-band Internet Explorer vulnerability patch, a new un-patched Internet Explorer flaw could leave thousands of users at risk.

Jorge Luis Alvarez Medina said to Reuters, "There are three or four ways to conduct this type of attack."

The smaller exploits triggers four or five minor exploits at the same time, by three or four different methods to trigger the attack.
