This issue exists due to the fact that Internet Explorer behaves different for file:// URLs pointing to existing and non-existent files. When used in combination with HTML5 sandbox iframes it is possible to use this behavior to find out if a local file exists. This technique only works on Internet Explorer 10 & 11 since these support the HTML5 sandbox. Also it is not possible to do this from a regular website as file:// URLs are blocked all together. The attack must be performed locally (works with Internet zone Mark of the Web) or from a share. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ See also ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - CVE-2016-3321 - MS16-095: Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer (3177356) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tested versions ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This issue was successfully verified on Internet Explorer 10 and Internet Explorer 11. The HTML5 sandbox iframes is not available in older versions of Internet Explorer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fix ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Microsoft released MS16-095 that fixes this vulnerability. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Details ------------------------------------------------------------------------ https://www.securify.nl/advisory/SFY20160301/internet_explorer_iframe_sandbox_local_file_name_disclosure_vulnerability.html _______________________________________________ Sent through the Full Disclosure mailing list https://nmap.org/mailman/listinfo/fulldisclosure Web Archives & RSS: http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/
