I analyzed this vulnerability (designated as CVE-2015-0016) because it may be the first vulnerability in the wild that showed the capability to escape the Internet Explorer sandbox. As sandboxing represents a key part of exploit mitigation techniques, any exploit that can break established sandboxes is worth a second look.
