Internet Explorer exploit could let phishers steal logins

A vulnerability in the latest patched version of Microsoft Internet Explorer that could allow hackers to launch “highly credible phishing attacks” has been uncovered, according to PC World. 
The exploit allows hackers to bypass the Same-Origin Policy – the security mechanism that prevents sites accessing or modifying browser cookies or other content from other websites. It was found to work on the latest patched version of Internet Explorer 11 both in Windows 7 and 8.1.
