    We installed the August Windows updates on our workstations on Thursday evening, 8/10. On the following Monday morning 6 of our users reported getting numerous "dllhost.exe - System Error: The system detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer in this application." popups that continued to repeat at various times. Event viewer showed that the errors Application Popup EventID 26 in System events had begun at differing times over the weekend while the computers were not in use.

    On a Windows 10 desktop today there was this error message...

    System reports "detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer" in iexplorer

    We ran into a system alert box (screenshot as below) complaining "an overrun of a stack-based buffer" in iexplorer randomly.


    dllhost.exe - System Error: The system detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer in this... [​IMG]


    The OS is Windows Server 2019 and is in zh-CN language. The error message can be translated as "The system detected an overrun of a stack-based
    buffer in this application. This overrun could potentially allow a malicious user to gain control of this application".

    Iexplorer looks functioning normal after dismissing the alert, but it's really annoying to our users.

    Anyone can help with

    1) why this happens? how can it be fixed?

    2) if it's a but from IE or system, how can we avoid this alert?

    3) is it possible to disable system from prompting this kind of alert?

    Thanks for any suggestions or hints.
