CVSS v3.1 |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and earlier does not properly validate digital certificates when Certificate Revocation List (CRL) checking is enabled, which could allow remote attackers to spoof trusted web sites, aka the "Server certificate validation vulnerability." |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to steal potentially sensitive information from cookies via a cookie that contains script which is executed when a page is loaded, aka the "Script within Cookies Reading Cookies" vulnerability. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by setting the location or URL property of a MHTMLFile ActiveX object. |
| The download function of Internet Explorer 6 SP1 allows remote attackers to obtain the cache directory name via an HTTP response with an invalid ContentType and a .htm file, which could allow remote attackers to bypass security mechanisms that rely on random names, as demonstrated by threadid10008. |
| 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. |
| By default, Internet Explorer 5.0 and other versions enables the "Navigate sub-frames across different domains" option, which allows frame spoofing. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 does not perform complete security checks on external caching, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files. |
| 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. |
| Drivers for certain display adapters, including (1) an unspecified ATI driver and (2) an unspecified Intel driver, might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a large JPEG image, as demonstrated in Internet Explorer using stoopid.jpg with a width and height of 9999999. |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and earlier executes Telnet sessions using command line arguments that are specified by the web site, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands if the IE client is using the Telnet client provided in Services for Unix (SFU) 2.0, which creates session transcripts. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 and possibly other versions allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code by instantiating COM objects as ActiveX controls, including (1) imskdic.dll (Microsoft IME), (2) chtskdic.dll (Microsoft IME), and (3) msoe.dll (Outlook), which leads to memory corruption. NOTE: it is not certain whether the issue is in Internet Explorer or the individual DLL files. |
| The Microsoft virtual machine (VM) in Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x allows a remote attacker to read files via a malicious Java applet that escapes the Java sandbox, aka the "VM File Reading" vulnerability. |
| The HTML rendering engine in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 allows remote attackers to conduct cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks via HTML in corrupted images and other files such as .GIF, JPG, and WAV, which is rendered as HTML when the user clicks on the link, even though the web server response and file extension indicate that it should be treated as a different file type. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a web page with embedded CLSIDs that reference certain COM objects that are not intended for use within Internet Explorer, aka a variant of the "COM Object Instantiation Memory Corruption Vulnerability," a different vulnerability than CVE-2005-2127. |
| Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to bypass the cross-domain security model and access information on the local system or in other domains, and possibly execute code, via cached methods and objects, aka "Cross Domain Verification via Cached Methods." |
| 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. |
| Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6, when using an HTTPS proxy server that requires Basic Authentication, sends URLs in cleartext, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information, aka "HTTPS Proxy Vulnerability." |
| Multiple design errors in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 allow user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code by (1) overlaying a malicious new window above a file download box, then (2) using a keyboard shortcut and delaying the display of the file download box until the user hits a shortcut that activates the "Run" button, aka "File Download Dialog Box Manipulation Vulnerability." |
