Description: A vulnerability was reported in Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE). A remote user can create HTML that, when loaded by the target user, will cause arbitrary code to be executed.
It is reported that a remote user can exploit a flaw in the media sidebar to cause IE to load a resource file in the "My Computer" zone and have it execute arbitrary code. According to the report, errors in loading media via the media sidebar are processed by the following file (in the local system zone):
res://C:WINDOWSSystem32browselc.dll/mb404.htm#path
A remote user can invoke other methods (including a cross-domain scripting flaw discovered by Liu Die Yu) to cause scripting code to be served by this page.
A demonstration exploit is provided at:

Impact: A remote user can cause arbitrary code to be executed by the target user's browser (with the privileges of the target user).
Solution: No solution was available at the time of this entry. |
