  • 1.  SEP14RU1 - Memory Exploit Mitigation breaks IE11

    Posted Nov 24, 2017 05:05 AM

    So we are in the process of upgrading our clients from SEP12RU6MP7 to SEP14RU1.

    After the initial restart when installing the new version, IE11 is not starting up anymore.
    Error Message:

    iexplore.exe
    The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005). Click OK to close the application

    Event Log:

    Faulting application name: iexplore.exe, version: 11.0.9600.18838, time stamp: 0x59e1b492
    Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000
    Exception code: 0xc0000005
    Fault offset: 0x00000000004e0a8a
    Faulting process id: 0x2140
    Faulting application start time: 0x01d3650967e64262
    Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
    Faulting module path: unknown
    Report Id: a59c52d1-d0fc-11e7-aae2-ecb1d7725227

    When disabling the Memory Exploit Mitigation policy, everything works fine again.
    The policy even was set to "Set the protection action for all techniques to log only". Bummer.

    So, what's the issue here?

    Hello,

    I would suggest you to create a case with Symantec Technical Support Team.

    Does an exception work?

    https://support.symantec.com/en_US/article.HOWTO127057.html#v121445542

    May need to contact support.

    I already checked the logs, but no entry/event from any client.

    Probably an issue for support.
