Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in ftp.htt in Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0, when running on Windows 2000 with "Enable folder view for FTP sites" and "Enable Web content in folders" selected, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the hostname portion of an FTP URL.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 through 9 does not properly handle unspecified character sequences, which allows remote attackers to read content from a different (1) domain or (2) zone via a crafted web site that triggers "inactive filtering," aka "Shift JIS Character Encoding Vulnerability."

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 executes web script from URIs of arbitrary scheme names ending with the "script" character sequence, using the (1) vbscript: handler for scheme names with 7 through 9 characters, and the (2) javascript: handler for scheme names with 10 or more characters, which might allow remote attackers to bypass certain XSS protection schemes. NOTE: other researchers dispute the significance of this issue, stating "this only works when typed in the address bar.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by creating a web page or HTML e-mail with a textarea in a div element whose scrollbar-base-color is modified by a CSS style, which is then moved.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 Beta 2 relies on the XDomainRequestAllowed HTTP header to authorize data exchange between domains, which allows remote attackers to bypass the product's XSS Filter protection mechanism, and conduct XSS and cross-domain attacks, by injecting this header after a CRLF sequence, related to "XDomainRequest Allowed Injection (XAI)." NOTE: the vendor has reportedly stated that the XSS Filter intentionally does not attempt to "address every conceivable XSS attack scenario."

The setRequestHeader method of the XMLHttpRequest object in Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 does not restrict the dangerous Transfer-Encoding HTTP request header, which allows remote attackers to conduct HTTP request splitting and HTTP request smuggling attacks via a POST containing a "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" header and a request body with an incorrect chunk size.

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in FreeStyle Wiki 3.6.2 and earlier, and 3.6.3 dev3 and earlier development versions, when Internet Explorer is used, allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via unspecified vectors, a different issue than CVE-2005-1799.

Microsoft Internet Explorer, possibly 8, does not properly restrict focus changes, which allows remote attackers to read keystrokes via "cross-domain IFRAME gadgets."

The XSS Filter in Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 Beta 2 allows remote attackers to bypass the XSS protection mechanism and conduct XSS attacks via a CRLF sequence in conjunction with a crafted Content-Type header, as demonstrated by a header with a utf-7 charset value. NOTE: the vendor has reportedly stated that the XSS Filter intentionally does not attempt to "address every conceivable XSS attack scenario."

The XSS Filter in Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 Beta 2 disables itself upon encountering a certain X-XSS-Protection HTTP header, which allows remote attackers to bypass the XSS protection mechanism and conduct XSS attacks by injecting this header after a CRLF sequence. NOTE: the vendor has reportedly stated that the XSS Filter intentionally does not attempt to "address every conceivable XSS attack scenario."

CRLF injection vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 and 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary FTP commands via an ftp:// URL that contains a URL-encoded CRLF (%0D%0A) before the FTP command, which causes the commands to be inserted into an authenticated FTP connection established earlier in the same browser session, as demonstrated using a DELE command, a variant or possibly a regression of CVE-2004-1166. NOTE: a trailing "//" can force Internet Explorer to try to reuse an existing authenticated connection.
