TITLE:
Internet Explorer for Mac Dialog Origin Spoofing Vulnerability
SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA15492
VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/15492/
CRITICAL:
Less critical
IMPACT:
Spoofing
WHERE:
>From remote
SOFTWARE:
Internet Explorer 5.x for Mac
http://secunia.com/product/2678/
DESCRIPTION:
Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in Internet Explorer
for Mac, which can be exploited by malicious web sites to spoof
dialog boxes.
The problem is that JavaScript dialog boxes do not display or include
their origin, which allows a new window to open e.g. a prompt dialog
box, which appears to be from a trusted site.
Successful exploitation normally requires that a user is tricked into
opening a link from a malicious web site to a trusted web site.
Secunia has constructed a test, which can be used to check if your
browser is affected by this issue:

The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 5.2.3. Prior versions
may also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Do not browse untrusted web sites while browsing trusted sites.
