Signature Detail

HTTP: Microsoft Internet Explorer Cross-Site Scripting Filter Information Disclosure

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known flaw in Microsoft Internet Explorer. An attacker can create a web page that, when accessed by a victim, can allow the attacker to obtain data from another website the victim is also accessing. This could result in sensitive information disclosure.

Extended Description

Microsoft Internet Explorer is prone to a cross-domain information-disclosure vulnerability that affects the XSS Filter. An attacker can exploit this issue by tricking an unsuspecting victim into viewing a page containing malicious content. Successful exploits will allow attackers to view potentially sensitive information from another domain or Internet Explorer zone; other attacks are possible.
