IMPACT:
System access

WHERE:
From remote

SOFTWARE:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.x

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.x
http://secunia.com/product/11/

DESCRIPTION:
Aviv Raff has discovered a vulnerability in Internet Explorer, which
can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.

Input passed via links within an HTML file is not being properly
sanitised before being used to generate a printable HTML file. This
can be exploited to inject arbitrary script code, which is executed
in local context when a user is enticed to print a specially crafted
HTML document with the "Print table of links" option enabled.

Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerability is confirmed in Internet Explorer 6 and 7 on a
fully patched Windows XP SP2. Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Do not print HTML files from untrusted sources with the "Print table
of links" option.
