Microsoft Internet Explorer 8

The XSS Filter in Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 Beta 2 does not recognize attack patterns designed to operate against web pages that are encoded with utf-7, which allows remote attackers to bypass the XSS protection mechanism and conduct XSS attacks by injecting crafted utf-7 content. NOTE: the vendor reportedly disputes this issue, stating "Behaviour is by design.

Microsoft msxml.dll, as used in Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7, allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive information about heap memory addresses via an XML document containing a call to the XSLT generate-id XPath function. NOTE: this might overlap CVE-2011-1202.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 through 10 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via crafted character sequences with EUC-JP encoding, aka "EUC-JP Character Encoding Vulnerability."

Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 through 11 allows remote attackers to gain privileges via a crafted web site, aka "Internet Explorer Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability."

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 through 8 allows remote attackers to spoof the address bar, via window.open with a relative URI, to show an arbitrary URL on the web site visited by the victim, as demonstrated by a visit to an attacker-controlled web page, which triggers a spoofed login form for the site containing that page.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 through 8.0 beta2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via an onload=screen[""] attribute value in a BODY element.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 does not properly handle content settings in HTTP responses, which allows remote web servers to obtain sensitive information from a different (1) domain or (2) zone via a crafted response, aka "MIME Sniffing Information Disclosure Vulnerability."

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in a mail component in Cybozu Garoon before 3.7.0, when Internet Explorer 6 through 8 is used, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and 9, when the Proxy Settings configuration has the same Proxy address and Port values in the HTTP and Secure rows, does not ensure that the SSL lock icon is consistent with the Address bar, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof web sites via a crafted HTML document that triggers many HTTPS requests to an arbitrary host, followed by an HTTPS request to a trusted host and then an HTTP request to an untrusted host, a related issue to CVE-2013-1450.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and 9, when the Proxy Settings configuration has the same Proxy address and Port values in the HTTP and Secure rows, does not properly reuse TCP sessions to the proxy server, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information intended for a specific host via a crafted HTML document that triggers many HTTPS requests and then triggers an HTTP request to that host, as demonstrated by reading a Cookie header, aka MSRC 12096gd.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in a calendar component in Cybozu Garoon before 3.7.2, when Internet Explorer 6 through 9 is used, allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors.

Microsoft Internet Explorer before 10 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information about the existence of files, and read certain data from files, via a UNC share pathname in the SRC attribute of a SCRIPT element, as demonstrated by reading a name-value pair from a local file via a \\127.0.0.1\C$\ sequence.
