CVSS v3.1 |
| A Microsoft ActiveX control allows a remote attacker to execute a malicious cabinet file via an attachment and an embedded script in an HTML mail, aka the "Active Setup Control" vulnerability. |
| A function in Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x does not properly verify the domain of a frame within a browser window, which allows a remote attacker to read client files, aka a variant of the "Frame Domain Verification" vulnerability. |
| Unknown versions of Internet Explorer and Outlook allow remote attackers to spoof a legitimate URL in the status bar via A HREF tags with modified "alt" values that point to the legitimate site, combined with an image map whose href points to the malicious site, which facilitates a "phishing" attack. |
| Internet Explorer 6.0, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to bypass the same origin security policy and make requests outside of the intended domain by calling open on an XMLHttpRequest object (Microsoft.XMLHTTP) and using tab, newline, and carriage return characters within the first argument (method name), which is supported by some proxy servers that convert tabs to spaces. NOTE: this issue can be leveraged to conduct referer spoofing, HTTP Request Smuggling, and other attacks. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0, when handling an expired CA-CERT in a webserver's certificate chain during a SSL/TLS handshake, does not prompt the user before searching for and finding a newer certificate, which may allow attackers to perform a man-in-the-middle attack. NOTE: it is not clear whether this poses a vulnerability. |
| Internet Explorer 6 on Double Byte Character Set (DBCS) systems allows remote attackers to alter displayed address bars and spoof web pages via a URL containing special characters, facilitating phishing attacks, aka the "Address Bar Spoofing on Double Byte Character Set Systems Vulnerability." |
| Internet Explorer 6.0 allows web sites to set cookies for country-specific top-level domains, such as .ltd.uk, .plc.uk, and .sch.uk, which could allow remote attackers to perform a session fixation attack and hijack a user's HTTP session. |
| Heap-based buffer overflow in Internet Explorer 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via long (1) SRC or (2) NAME attributes in IFRAME, FRAME, and EMBED elements, as originally discovered using the mangleme utility, aka "the IFRAME vulnerability" or the "HTML Elements Vulnerability." |
| Outlook Express 5 for Macintosh downloads attachments to HTML mail without prompting the user, aka the "HTML Mail Attachment" vulnerability. |
| Microsoft Virtual Machine (VM) in Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x allows an unsigned applet to create and use ActiveX controls, which allows a remote attacker to bypass Internet Explorer's security settings and execute arbitrary commands via a malicious web page or email, aka the "Microsoft VM ActiveX Component" vulnerability. |
| Internet Explorer 6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause certain HTTP requests to be automatically executed and appear to come from the user, which could allow attackers to gain privileges or execute operations within web-based services, aka the "HTTP Request Encoding vulnerability." |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer for Unix 5.0SP1 allows local users to possibly cause a denial of service (crash) in CDE or the X server on Solaris 2.6 by rapidly scrolling Chinese characters or maximizing the window. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and memory leak) via a web page with a large number of images. |
| Heap-based buffer overflow in the Remote Data Services (RDS) component of Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.1 through 2.6, and Internet Explorer 5.01 through 6.0, allows remote attackers to execute code via a malformed HTTP request to the Data Stub. |
| Internet Explorer 5.01 through 6.0 does not properly check certain parameters of a PNG file when opening it, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by triggering a heap-based buffer overflow using invalid length codes during decompression, aka "Malformed PNG Image File Failure." |
| Internet Explorer 5.01 through 6.0 does not properly perform security checks on certain encoded characters within a URL, which allows a remote attacker to steal potentially sensitive information from a user by redirecting the user to another site that has that information, aka "Encoded Characters Information Disclosure." |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 through 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an object of type "text/html" with the DATA field that identifies the HTML document that contains the object, which may cause infinite recursion. |
| Buffer overflow in URLMON.DLL in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an HTTP response containing long values in (1) Content-type and (2) Content-encoding fields. |
| The file upload control in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6.0 allows remote attackers to automatically upload files from the local system via a web page containing a script to upload the files. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0 does not properly check the Cascading Style Sheet input parameter for Modal dialogs, which allows remote attackers to read files on the local system via a web page containing script that creates a dialog and then accesses the target files, aka "Modal Dialog script execution." |
