It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2001-1497 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Ie. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1497/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1497/index.md)","id":"CVE-2001-1497","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1497/index.md","name":"CVE-2001-1497","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-vq53-fvjx-3c2c"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"no_fix_stated","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Internet Explorer browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Local attackers can distinguish password characters via keyboard navigation, facilitating brute-force attacks against Internet Explorer users.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ie","vendor":"microsoft"},{"product":"internet_explorer","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":2.1,"severity":"low","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:L/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 through 6.0 could allow local users to differentiate between alphanumeric and non-alphanumeric characters used in a password by pressing certain control keys that jump between non-alphanumeric characters, which makes it easier to conduct a brute-force password guessing attack.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1497","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:ie","products":["microsoft:ie","microsoft:internet_explorer"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2001"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1498"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-1496"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2005-06-21","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-0217","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-02-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2007-0219","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2007-02-13"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-1186","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2006-04-11"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0985","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-10-26"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Integer overflow in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0216","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-10-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-0420","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-04-20"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2003-1027","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2004-01-08"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-08","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Local attackers can distinguish password characters via keyboard navigation, facilitating brute-force attacks against Internet Explorer users.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2001-1497/"}
