Double free vulnerability in mshtml.dll for certain versions of Internet Explorer 6.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed GIF image.
Internet Explorer for Mac 5.2.3, Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP, and possibly other versions, does not properly prevent a frame in one domain from injecting content into a frame that belongs to another domain, which facilitates web site spoofing and other attacks, aka the frame injection vulnerability.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106 on Microsoft Windows XP SP2, and other versions including 5.01 and 5.5, allows remote web servers to bypass zone restrictions and execute arbitrary code in the local computer zone by redirecting a function to another function with the same name, as demonstrated by SimilarMethodNameRedir, aka the "Similar Method Name Redirection Cross Domain Vulnerability."
The Windows Shell application in Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by spoofing the type of a file via a CLSID specifier in the filename, as demonstrated using Internet Explorer 6.0.2800.1106 on Windows XP.
mshtml.dll in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.2800 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a table containing a form that crosses multiple td elements, and whose "float: left" class is defined in a link to a CSS stylesheet after the end of the table, which may trigger a null dereference.
Internet Explorer 5.x and 6.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary programs via a modified directory traversal attack using a URL containing ".." (dot dot) sequences and a filename that ends in "::" which is treated as a .chm file even if it does not have a .chm extension. NOTE: this bug may overlap CVE-2004-0475.
Microsoft Internet Explorer allows remote attackers to bypass intended cookie access restrictions on a web application via "%2e%2e" (encoded dot dot) directory traversal sequences in a URL, which causes Internet Explorer to send the cookie outside the specified URL subsets, e.g. to a vulnerable application that runs on the same server as the target application.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0 allocates memory based on the memory size written in the BMP file instead of the actual BMP file size, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a small BMP file with has a large memory size.
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0.1 through 6.0 allows remote attackers to determine the existence of arbitrary files via the VBScript LoadPicture method, which returns an error code if the file does not exist.
