Title: Microsoft XML Core Services Information Disclosure Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
Microsoft XML Core Services is prone to an information-disclosure vulnerability. This vulnerability is caused by an error in how the affected component handles server redirects.
In particular, the issue occurs because of how the XMLHTTP ActiveX control interprets a server-side redirect. This could let an attacker access properties of another Internet domain or browser security zone.
An attacker can exploit this vulnerability by enticing a victim user into visiting a malicious web page.
