Description

Internet Explorer contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate the redirection of a function to another function with the same name. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code possibly in other security zones/domains in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
