This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Microsoft Internet Explorer. Attackers can use the vulnerability to disclose information.
Microsoft Internet Explorer is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability because it fails to properly enforce cross-domain policies. This issue may allow attackers to access arbitrary websites in the context of a targeted user's browser session. This may allow attackers to perform actions in web applications with the privileges of exploited users or to gain access to potentially sensitive information. This may aid attackers in further attacks.
