IE & Outlook Run Windows Commands without Scripting


Recommended Posts

"An attacker can run arbitrary commands on Windows machines with a simple bit of HTML, an Israeli security researcher has demonstrated. The exploit will work with IE, Outlook and OutlooK Express even if active scripting and ActiveX are disabled in the browser security settings.

MS has yet to patch the hole

The problem here is data binding, an old 'feature' going back to IE4 in which a data source object (DSO) is bound to HTML. "
