CVSS v3.1 |
| Internet Explorer 5.01 and earlier allows a remote attacker to create a reference to a client window and use a server-side redirect to access local files via that window, aka "Server-side Page Reference Redirect." |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 and 6 does not properly handle uninitialized COM objects, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) and possibly execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated by the Nth function in the DirectAnimation.DATuple ActiveX control, aka "COM Object Instantiation Memory Corruption Vulnerability." |
| The Preloader ActiveX control used by Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service via an infinite loop for modeless dialogs showModelessDialog, which causes CPU usage while the focus for the dialog is not released. |
| A configuration in a web browser such as Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator allows execution of active content such as ActiveX, Java, Javascript, etc. |
| 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." |
| Internet Explorer 6 SP1 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass zone restrictions and read arbitrary files by (1) modifying the createTextRange method and using CreateLink, as demonstrated using LinkillerSaveRef, LinkillerJPU, and Linkiller, or (2) modifying the createRange method and using the FIND dialog to select text, as demonstrated using Findeath, aka the "Function Pointer Override Cross Domain" vulnerability. |
| Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to bypass zone restrictions to inject and execute arbitrary programs by creating a popup window and inserting ActiveX object code with a "data" tag pointing to the malicious code, which Internet Explorer treats as HTML or Javascript, but later executes as an HTA application, a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0532, and as exploited using the QHosts Trojan horse (aka Trojan.Qhosts, QHosts-1, VBS.QHOSTS, or aolfix.exe). |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to read certain files and spoof the URL in the address bar by using the Document.open function to pass information between two frames from different domains, a new variant of the "Frame Domain Verification" vulnerability described in MS:MS01-058/CAN-2001-0874. |
| The showHelp() function in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6.0 supports certain types of pluggable protocols that allow remote attackers to bypass the cross-domain security model and execute arbitrary code, aka "Improper Cross Domain Security Validation with ShowHelp functionality." |
| The window.showHelp() method in Internet Explorer 5.x does not restrict HTML help files (.chm) to be executed from the local host, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via Microsoft Networking. |
| Internet Explorer 6 SP1 and earlier allows remote attackers to bypass zone restrictions and execute Javascript by setting the window's "href" to the malicious Javascript, then calling execCommand("Refresh") to refresh the page, aka BodyRefreshLoadsJPU or the "ExecCommand Cross Domain" vulnerability. |
| CRLF injection vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary FTP commands via an ftp:// URL that contains a URL-encoded newline ("%0a") before the FTP command, which causes the commands to be inserted into the resulting FTP session, as demonstrated using a PORT command. |
| Internet Explorer 6 allows remote attackers to bypass the popup blocker via the document object model (DOM) methods in the DHTML Dynamic HTML (DHTML) Editing Component (DEC) and Javascript that calls showModalDialog. |
| Buffer overflow in Internet Explorer 6 SP1 for certain languages that support double-byte encodings (e.g., Japanese) allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the Type property of an Object tag, a variant of CVE-2003-0344. |
| 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 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. |
| 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. |
| mshtml.dll 6.00.2900.2873, as used in Microsoft Internet Explorer, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via nested OBJECT tags, which trigger invalid pointer dereferences including NULL dereferences. NOTE: the possibility of code execution was originally theorized, but Microsoft has stated that this issue is non-exploitable. |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and earlier allows remote attackers to obtain the physical location of cached content and open the content in the Local Computer Zone, then use compiled HTML help (.chm) files to execute arbitrary programs. |
