Summary
Internet Explorer vulnerable in MHTML handling
Details
Internet Explorer is vulnerable in handling MHTML (MIME Encapsulation of Aggregate HTML) protocol, which allows an arbitrary script execution. When Internet Explorer accesses a website with the MHTML protocol, Internet Explorer processes the contents as MHTML data, ignoring their actual content types. This behavior may result in executing the scripts embedded in the contents. The MHTML protocol handler is included in the Outlook Express component, and Microsoft provides the fix of the vulnerability for this component.
