Microsoft today issued a security advisory to acknowledge an
information disclosure hole in its Internet Explorer browser and warned
that an attacker could exploit the flaw to access files
with an already known filename and location.
The vulnerability was
first discussed at this week's Black Hat DC conference by Jorge Luis
Alvarez Medina, a security consultant with Core Security
Technologies. Microsoft says the risk is highest for IE users running
Windows XP or who have disabled the browser's Protected Mode feature.
