Buffer overflow in the PNG image rendering component of Microsoft Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted PNG file.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 SP2 6.0.2900.2180 and 6.0.2800.1106, and earlier versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and execute arbitrary code via a Javascript BODY onload event that calls the window function, aka "Mismatched Document Object Model Objects Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 SP2 (6.0.2900.2180) crashes when the user attempts to add a URI to the restricted zone, in which the full domain name of the URI begins with numeric sequences similar to an IP address. NOTE: if there is not an exploit scenario in which an attacker can trigger this behavior, then perhaps this issue should not be included in CVE.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 SP2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and application crash) via two embedded files that call each other.

Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via drag and drop events, aka the "Drag-and-Drop Vulnerability."

Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 allows remote attackers to spoof a less restrictive security zone and execute arbitrary code via an HTML page containing URLs that contain hostnames that have been double hex encoded, which are decoded twice to generate a malicious hostname, aka the "URL Decoding Zone Spoofing Vulnerability."

Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 does not properly validate buffers when handling certain DHTML methods including the createControlRange Javascript function, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, aka the "DHTML Method Heap Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 does not properly validate certain URLs in Channel Definition Format (CDF) files, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information or execute arbitrary code, aka the "Channel Definition Format (CDF) Cross Domain Vulnerability."

Internet Explorer 6.0 on Windows XP SP2 allows remote attackers to spoof the domain name of a URL in a titlebar for a script-initiated popup window, which could facilitate phishing attacks.

Race condition in the memory management routines in the DHTML object processor in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malicious web page or HTML e-mail, aka "DHTML Object Memory Corruption Vulnerability".

Buffer overflow in the URL processor of Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a URL with a long hostname, aka "URL Parsing Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer in Windows 2000 SP1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a malformed Windows Metafile (WMF) file.

Buffer overflow in the Content Advisor in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted Content Advisor file, aka "Content Advisor Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP SP2 allows remote attackers to bypass the file download warning dialog and possibly trick an unknowledgeable user into executing arbitrary code via a web page with a body element containing an onclick tag, as demonstrated using the createElement function.

Internet Explorer on Windows XP does not properly modify the "Drag and Drop or copy and paste files" setting when the user sets it to "Disable" or "Prompt," which may enable security-sensitive operations that are inconsistent with the user's intended configuration.

Internet Explorer 6.x on Windows XP SP2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code, as demonstrated using a document with a draggable file type such as .xml, .doc, .py, .cdf, .css, .pdf, or .ppt, and using ADODB.Connection and ADODB.recordset to write to a .hta file that is interpreted in the Local Zone by HTML Help.

Internet Explorer 6.0 on Windows XP SP2 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by using the "Related Topics" command in the Help ActiveX Control (hhctrl.ocx) to open a Help popup window containing the PCHealth tools.htm file in the local zone and injecting Javascript to be executed, as demonstrated using "writehta.txt" and the ADODB recordset, which saves a .HTA file to the local system, aka the "HTML Help ActiveX control Cross Domain Vulnerability."

Heap-based buffer overflow in Internet Explorer 6 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via long (1) SRC or (2) NAME attributes in IFRAME, FRAME, and EMBED elements, as originally discovered using the mangleme utility, aka "the IFRAME vulnerability" or the "HTML Elements Vulnerability."

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 SP2 allows remote attackers to spoof a legitimate URL in the status bar and conduct a phishing attack via a web page that contains a BASE element that points to the legitimate site, followed by an anchor (a) element with an empty "href" attribute, and a FORM whose action points to a malicious URL, and an INPUT submit element that is modified to look like a legitimate URL.

Internet Explorer 5.01 through 6 allows remote attackers to spoof arbitrary web sites by injecting content from one window into another window whose name is known but resides in a different domain, as demonstrated using a pop-up window on a trusted web site, aka the "window injection" vulnerability. NOTE: later research shows that Internet Explorer 7 on Windows XP SP2 is also vulnerable.
