HTTP: Internet Explorer ToStatic Cross Site Scripting

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer. A successful attack can result in unauthorized information disclosure.

Extended Description

Internet Explorer 8 is prone to a security-bypass weakness. Internet Explorer 8 includes a method designed to sanitize executable script constructs from HTML. Attackers can bypass this protection, allowing script code to execute on the client, for example in a 'postMessage' call. Attackers can leverage this issue to obtain sensitive information or potentially launch cross-site scripting attacks on unsuspecting users of targeted sites. Other attacks may also be possible.
