MS.IE.Address.Bar.History.Spoofing

description-logoDescription

Microsoft Internet Explorer has a Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. A remote attacker could spoof a trusted Web page by altering the URL that is displayed in the Internet Explorer address bar. This can be accomplished via Javascript that uses an invalid URI, modifies the Location field, then uses history.back to navigate to the previous domain.
