Description
Internet Explorer 5.5 and earlier does not properly verify the domain of a frame within a browser window, which allows remote web site operators to read certain files on the client by sending information from a local frame to a frame in a different domain, aka a variant of the "Frame Domain Verification" vulnerability.
