An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2004-1686 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-2004-1686/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-1686/index.md)","id":"CVE-2004-1686","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-1686/index.md","name":"CVE-2004-1686","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-rc47-jfx2-55pr"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Internet Explorer browser","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can bypass Internet Explorer's Information Bar prompt for ActiveX and JavaScript using a crafted XHTML page, requiring user interaction.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"ie","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"Internet Explorer 6.0 in Windows XP SP2 allows remote attackers to bypass the Information Bar prompt for ActiveX and Javascript via an XHTML page that contains an Internet Explorer formatted comment between the DOCTYPE tag and the HTML tag, as demonstrated using the DesignScience MathPlayer ActiveX plugin.","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":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1686","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:ie","products":["microsoft:ie"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2004"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1687"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Auth bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2004-1685"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2005-02-20","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":"Remote attackers can bypass Internet Explorer's Information Bar prompt for ActiveX and JavaScript using a crafted XHTML page, requiring user interaction.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2004-1686/"}
