| Id | Description |
|---|---|
| 7912 | Microsoft IE showHelp() Arbitrary File Execution Microsoft Internet Explorer contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary files. The issue is triggered due to the 'showHelp()' function. It is possible that the flaw may allow a malicious web page, which invokes the 'showHelp()' function to execute known compiled help files (.chm) within the Local Computer security zone, once the page is viewed resulting in a loss of integrity. |
| 7803 | Microsoft Windows showHelp Arbitrary Code Execution MS Windows contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code outside of the web path. The issue is due to the showhelp() function not properly sanitizing user input, specifically traversal style attacks (../../) supplied via the URL target. |
