CVSS v3.1 |
| The Microsoft Active Setup ActiveX component in Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x allows a remote attacker to install software components without prompting the user by stating that the software's manufacturer is Microsoft. |
| 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. |
| Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x does not properly verify all contents of an SSL certificate if a connection is made to the server via an image or a frame, aka one of two different "SSL Certificate Validation" vulnerabilities. |
| Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x does not properly re-validate an SSL certificate if the user establishes a new SSL session with the same server during the same Internet Explorer session, aka one of two different "SSL Certificate Validation" vulnerabilities. |
| 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. |
| 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 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. |
| 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. |
| 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 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 6.0 does not warn users when an expired certificate authority (CA) certificate is submitted to the user and a newer CA certificate is in the user's local repository, which could allow remote attackers to decrypt web sessions via a man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack. |
| Heap-based buffer overflow in plugin.ocx for Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via the Load() method, a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0115. |
| Buffer overflow in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via / (slash) characters in the Type property of an Object tag in a web page. |
| Buffer overflow in the BR549.DLL ActiveX control for Internet Explorer 5.01 SP3 through 6.0 SP1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. |
| Internet Explorer 5.01 SP3 through 6.0 SP1 allows remote attackers to access and execute script in the My Computer domain using the browser cache via crafted Content-Type and Content-Disposition headers, aka the "Browser Cache Script Execution in My Computer Zone" vulnerability. |
| Internet Explorer 5.01 SP3 through 6.0 SP1 does not properly determine object types that are returned by web servers, which could allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an object tag with a data parameter to a malicious file hosted on a server that returns an unsafe Content-Type, aka the "Object Type" vulnerability. |
| 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. |
