Internet Explorer before 5.5 forwards cached user credentials for a secure web site to insecure pages on the same web site, which could allow remote attackers to obtain the credentials by monitoring connections to the web server, aka the "Cached Web Credentials" vulnerability.
The ActiveX control for invoking a scriptlet in Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x renders arbitrary file types instead of HTML, which allows an attacker to read arbitrary files, aka the "Scriptlet Rendering" vulnerability.
A function in Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x does not properly verify the domain of a frame within a browser window, which allows a remote attacker to read client files, aka a variant of the "Frame Domain Verification" vulnerability.
The IFRAME of the WebBrowser control in Internet Explorer 5.01 allows a remote attacker to violate the cross frame security policy via the NavigateComplete2 event.
Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x does not properly verify all contents of an SSL certificate if a connection is made to the server via an image or a frame, aka one of two different "SSL Certificate Validation" vulnerabilities.
Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x does not properly re-validate an SSL certificate if the user establishes a new SSL session with the same server during the same Internet Explorer session, aka one of two different "SSL Certificate Validation" vulnerabilities.
Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via a buffer overflow in the ActiveX parameter parsing capability, aka the "Malformed Component Attribute" vulnerability.
Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x does not properly verify the domain of a frame within a browser window, which allows a remote attacker to read client files via the frame, aka the "Frame Domain Verification" vulnerability.
Internet Explorer 4.0 and 5.0 allows a malicious web site to obtain client cookies from another domain by including that domain name and escaped characters in a URL, aka the "Unauthorized Cookie Access" vulnerability.
The Microsoft virtual machine (VM) in Internet Explorer 4.x and 5.x allows a remote attacker to read files via a malicious Java applet that escapes the Java sandbox, aka the "VM File Reading" vulnerability.
