CVSS v3.1 |
| Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to read files by redirecting data to a Javascript applet. |
| The rendering engine in Internet Explorer determines the MIME type independently of the type that is specified by the server, which allows remote servers to automatically execute script which is placed in a file whose MIME type does not normally support scripting, such as text (.txt), JPEG (.jpg), etc. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106 on Microsoft Windows XP SP2, and other versions including 5.01 and 5.5, allows remote web servers to bypass zone restrictions and execute arbitrary code in the local computer zone by redirecting a function to another function with the same name, as demonstrated by SimilarMethodNameRedir, aka the "Similar Method Name Redirection Cross Domain Vulnerability." |
| The WebBrowser ActiveX control, or the Internet Explorer HTML rendering engine (MSHTML), as used in Internet Explorer 6, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code in the Local Security context by using the showModalDialog method and modifying the location to execute code such as Javascript, as demonstrated using (1) delayed HTTP redirect operations, and an HTTP response with a Location: header containing a "URL:" prepended to a "ms-its" protocol URI, or (2) modifying the location attribute of the window, as exploited by the Download.ject (aka Scob aka Toofer) using the ADODB.Stream object. |
| Internet Explorer 5.0 does not properly reset the username/password cache for Web sites that do not use standard cache controls, which could allow users on the same system to access restricted web sites that were visited by other users. |
| Internet Explorer 6 and earlier, when used with the Telnet client in Services for Unix (SFU) 2.0, allows remote attackers to execute commands by spawning Telnet with a log file option on the command line and writing arbitrary code into an executable file which is later executed, aka a new variant of the Telnet Invocation vulnerability as described in CVE-2001-0150. |
| Internet Explorer 5 allows a remote attacker to modify the IE client's proxy configuration via a malicious Web Proxy Auto-Discovery (WPAD) server. |
| The DHTML Edit ActiveX control in Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files. |
| Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0 does not properly handle the Content-Type HTML header field, which allows remote attackers to modify which application is used to process a document. |
| Buffer overflow in Microsoft Internet Explorer and Explorer on Windows XP SP1, WIndows 2000, Windows 98, and Windows Me may allow remote malicious servers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via long share names, as demonstrated using Samba. |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and 5.01 allows remote attackers to bypass security restrictions via malformed URLs that contain dotless IP addresses, which causes Internet Explorer to process the page in the Intranet Zone, which may have fewer security restrictions, aka the "Zone Spoofing vulnerability." |
| The setup wizard (ie5setup.exe) for Internet Explorer 5.0 disables (1) the screen saver, which could leave the system open to users with physical access if a failure occurs during an unattended installation, and (2) the Task Scheduler Service, which might prevent the scheduled execution of security-critical programs. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to bypass the cross-domain security model to run malicious script or arbitrary programs via dialog boxes, aka "Improper Cross Domain Security Validation with dialog box." |
| Buffer overflow in the implementation of an HTML directive in mshtml.dll in Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a web page that specifies embedded ActiveX controls in a way that causes 2 Unicode strings to be concatenated. |
| File Download box in Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0 allows an attacker to use the Content-Disposition and Content-Type HTML header fields to modify how the name of the file is displayed, which could trick a user into believing that a file is safe to download. |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to bypass restrictions for executing scripts via an object that processes asynchronous events after the initial security checks have been made. |
| Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x allows remote web servers to access files on the client that are outside of its security domain, aka the "Image Source Redirect" vulnerability. |
| Race condition in Microsoft Internet Explorer allows user-assisted attackers to overwrite arbitrary files and possibly execute code by tricking a user into performing a drag-and-drop action from certain objects, such as file objects within a folder view, then predicting the drag action, and re-focusing to a malicious window. |
| msxml3.dll in Internet Explorer 6.0.2600.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a single & (ampersand) in a <Ref href> link, which triggers a parsing error, possibly due to missing portions of the URI. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via a Javascript src attribute that recursively loads the current web page. |
