CVSS v3.1 |
| Internet Explorer 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by modifying the Content-Disposition and Content-Type header fields in a way that causes Internet Explorer to believe that the file is safe to open without prompting the user, aka the "File Execution Vulnerability." |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 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 variant" of CVE-2001-0664. |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to read and modify user cookies via Javascript, aka the "Second Cookie Handling Vulnerability." |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to read and modify user cookies via Javascript in an about: URL, aka the "First Cookie Handling Vulnerability." |
| 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. |
| The Kodak/Wang (1) Image Edit (imgedit.ocx), (2) Image Annotation (imgedit.ocx), (3) Image Scan (imgscan.ocx), (4) Thumbnail Image (imgthumb.ocx), (5) Image Admin (imgadmin.ocx), (6) HHOpen (hhopen.ocx), (7) Registration Wizard (regwizc.dll), and (8) IE Active Setup (setupctl.dll) ActiveX controls for Internet Explorer (IE) 4.01 and 5.0 are marked as "Safe for Scripting," which allows remote attackers to create and modify files and execute arbitrary commands. |
| When a Web site redirects the browser to another site, Internet Explorer 3.02 and 4.0 automatically resends authentication information to the second site, aka the "Page Redirect Issue." |
| Internet Explorer 4.0 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary text and HTML files on the user's machine via a small IFRAME that uses Dynamic HTML (DHTML) to send the data to the attacker, aka the Freiburg text-viewing issue. |
| Internet Explorer 4 allows remote attackers (malicious web site operators) to read the contents of the clipboard via the Internet WebBrowser ActiveX object. |
| Internet Explorer 4.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via HTML code that contains a long CLASSID parameter in an OBJECT tag. |
| Internet Explorer 3 records a history of all URL's that are visited by a user in DAT files located in the Temporary Internet Files and History folders, which are not cleared when the user selects the "Clear History" option, and are not visible when the user browses the folders because of tailored displays. |
| 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. |
| 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, with a security setting below Medium, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a malicious web page that uses the FileSystemObject ActiveX object. |
| Internet Explorer 5.0 records the username and password for FTP servers in the URL history, which could allow (1) local users to read the information from another user's index.dat, or (2) people who are physically observing ("shoulder surfing") another user to read the information from the status bar when the user moves the mouse over a link. |
| Internet Explorer 3.01 on Windows 95 allows remote malicious web sites to execute arbitrary commands via a .isp file, which is automatically downloaded and executed without prompting the user. |
| Windows Media Player ActiveX object as used in Internet Explorer 5.0 returns a specific error code when a file does not exist, which allows remote malicious web sites to determine the existence of files on the client. |
| Buffer overflow in Internet Explorer 4.01 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a long URL with the "mk:" protocol, aka the "MK Overrun security issue." |
| Buffer overflow in the Window.External function in the JScript Scripting Engine in Internet Explorer 4.01 SP1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a malicious web page. |
| Internet Explorer 4 treats a 32-bit number ("dotless IP address") in the a URL as the hostname instead of an IP address, which causes IE to apply Local Intranet Zone settings to the resulting web page, allowing remote malicious web servers to conduct unauthorized activities by using URLs that contain the dotless IP address for their server. |
