IE ActiveX Popup Zone Restriction BypassID: oval:org.mitre.oval:def:204 | Date: (C)2003-11-12 (M)2021-07-27 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: windows |
Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to bypass zone restrictions to inject and execute arbitrary programs by creating a popup window and inserting ActiveX object code with a "data" tag pointing to the malicious code, which Internet Explorer treats as HTML or Javascript, but later executes as an HTA application, a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0532, and as exploited using the QHosts Trojan horse (aka Trojan.Qhosts, QHosts-1, VBS.QHOSTS, or aolfix.exe).
