The zero-day vulnerability that took the name CVE-2020-0674 is a high-level, which enables attackers (hackers) to run any code in the compromised system or as it is called (The remote-code execution (RCE)).
This vulnerability can be exploited on both IE 9, 10, and 11 browsers, and on all regular Windows systems (7 (which support has stopped, 8, and 10) and Windows Server systems, where hackers usually publish sites that contain code Harmful enables them to exploit the vulnerability by sending emails (spam), or redirecting the browser through several methods, and if the user uses the IE browser then his device will immediately be hacked and install malicious software in his operating system.
It is frightening this time that Microsoft announced that it was unable to patch the vulnerability until February 11th, and the question remains whether or not Microsoft will release a security update for Windows 7 users because support has stopped it!

Some security experts have said that IE users should disable Javascript codes in the browser to avoid hacking damage as a temporary solution to the vulnerability, and at the same time the American Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security (CISA) issued a statement urging users not to use the IE browser and switch to other browsers until they are found Solutions and release of security updates from Microsoft.
In general, IE is only used by some companies that still rely on it to emulate legacy web programs.
As for most users, including myself, I only use it after formatting the device to download Google chrome.
