Title:	Microsoft Internet Explorer Anti-XSS Filter Vulnerabilities
Summary:	Internet Explorer is prone to anti-xss filter vulnerabilities.
Description:	Summary: Internet Explorer is prone to anti-xss filter vulnerabilities. Vulnerability Insight: These flaws are due to: - Injections facilitated by some HTTP headers are not currently blocked. - Injections into some contexts are not blocked where contents can be injected directly into JavaScript without breaking out a string. - Allowing access to the attacker to inject XSS string in 2 different HTML positions. - It lets the attacker execute XSS attacks using CRLF sequence in conjunction with a crafted Content-Type header. Vulnerability Impact: Successful exploitation will let the attacker execute arbitrary codes in the context of the application and can perform the XSS attacks on the remote hosts without any consent of IE. Affected Software/OS: Microsoft Windows Platform with Internet Explorer 8.0 Beta 2. Solution: No known solution was made available for at least one year since the disclosure of this vulnerability. Likely none will be provided anymore. General solution options are to upgrade to a newer release, disable respective features, remove the product or replace the product by another one.
