CCN-18395

Published:2004-12-07
Updated:2004-12-07
Summary:Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6.0 running on Microsoft Windows XP SP1 and Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4 could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information. By creating a specially-crafted Web page that references the sysimage: URI handler in an image tag and contains the onError and onLoad events, a remote attacker could determine the existence of a file on the system, once the malicious Web page is visited. An attacker can then use this information to launch further attacks against the affected system.
