Descriptions

The MHTML protocol handler in a component of Microsoft Outlook Express 5.5 SP2 and 6 through SP1, and Windows Mail, does not assign the correct Internet Explorer Security Zone to UNC share pathnames, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions and read arbitrary files via an mhtml: URI in conjunction with a redirection, aka "URL Parsing Cross-Domain Information Disclosure Vulnerability."

El manejador de protocolo MHTML en un componente de Outlook Express versiones 5.5 SP2 y 6 hasta SP1 y Windows Mail de Microsoft no asigna la zona de seguridad de Internet Explorer correcta a los nombres de ruta (path) de recurso compartido UNC, lo que permite a los atacantes remotos omitir las restricciones de acceso previstas y leer archivos arbitrarios por medio de un URI mhtml: en conjunto con un redireccionamiento, tambiƩn se conoce como "URL Parsing Cross-Domain Information Disclosure Vulnerability".
