HTTP: Microsoft Internet Explorer SSL Proxy Information Disclosure


This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against Internet Explorer. In certain situations, when a proxy server requires Basic Authentication, IE can disclose sensitive information. Attackers can take advantage of this information and gain access to authentication details sent to Web sites.

Extended Description

Microsoft Internet Explorer is prone to an information disclosure vulnerability when using an authenticating proxy server for HTTPS communications. Exploitation of this issue could result in an attacker gaining a user's authentication credentials. This issue only exists when the authenticating proxy uses Basic Authentication.
