The Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) implementation in Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 and earlier does not properly handle the :visited pseudo-class, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information about visited web pages via a crafted HTML document, a related issue to CVE-2010-2264.
The JavaScript implementation in Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 and earlier does not properly restrict the set of values contained in the object returned by the getComputedStyle method, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information about visited web pages by calling this method.
Microsoft Internet Explorer before 8 displays a cached certificate for a (1) 4xx or (2) 5xx CONNECT response page returned by a proxy server, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof an arbitrary https site by letting a browser obtain a valid certificate from this site during one request, and then sending the browser a crafted 502 response page upon a subsequent request.
Microsoft Internet Explorer before 8 uses the HTTP Host header to determine the context of a document provided in a (1) 4xx or (2) 5xx CONNECT response from a proxy server, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to execute arbitrary web script by modifying this CONNECT response, aka an "SSL tampering" attack.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted website using Javascript that creates, modifies, deletes, and accesses document objects using the tags property, which triggers heap corruption, related to uninitialized or deleted objects, a different issue than CVE-2007-3902 and CVE-2007-3903, and a variant of "Uninitialized Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via "unexpected method calls to HTML objects," aka "DHTML Object Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 through 7 allows remote attackers to determine the existence of local files that have associated images via a res:// URI in the src property of a JavaScript Image object, as demonstrated by the URI for a bitmap image resource within a (1) .exe or (2) .dll file.
jscript.dll in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a Shockwave Flash object that contains ActionScript code that calls VBScript, which in turn calls the Javascript document.write function, which triggers a null dereference.
Race condition in Microsoft Internet Explorer allows user-assisted attackers to overwrite arbitrary files and possibly execute code by tricking a user into performing a drag-and-drop action from certain objects, such as file objects within a folder view, then predicting the drag action, and re-focusing to a malicious window.
The legacy <script> data-island capability for XML in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6.0 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary XML files, and portions of other files, via a URL whose "src" attribute redirects to a local file.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to view arbitrary files that contain the "{" character via script containing the cssText property of the stylesheet object, aka "Local Information Disclosure through HTML Object" vulnerability.
