An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2006-3281 exists.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft Internet Explorer. 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-2006-3281/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-3281/index.md)","id":"CVE-2006-3281","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-3281/index.md","name":"CVE-2006-3281","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6hxc-5477-3vmj"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Internet Explorer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code in Internet Explorer by tricking users into dragging and dropping a maliciously crafted file from an SMB share.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"path_traversal"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"internet_explorer","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":5.1,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 does not properly handle Drag and Drop events, which allows remote user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a link to an SMB file share with a filename that contains encoded ..\\ (%2e%2e%5c) sequences and whose extension contains the CLSID Key identifier for HTML Applications (HTA), aka \"Folder GUID Code Execution Vulnerability.\"  NOTE: directory traversal sequences were used in the original exploit, although their role is not clear.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2006-07-27","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2006-07-27","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"28357","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Windows XP/2000/2003 - Explorer Drag and Drop Remote Code Execution"}],"tier":"weaponised"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Path traversal in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-3281","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:internet_explorer","products":["microsoft:internet_explorer"],"type":"path_traversal","year":"2006"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":11,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-3282"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2006-3280"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2006-06-28","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft Internet Explorer Memory Corruption","id":"CVE-2014-1776","kev_date_added":"2022-01-28","published":"2014-04-27"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Internet Explorer Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2021-27085","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2021-03-11"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Internet Explorer Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-0222","kev_date_added":"2022-02-25","published":"2017-05-12"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Internet Explorer Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2017-0210","kev_date_added":"2022-05-24","published":"2017-04-12"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Internet Explorer Memory Corruption","id":"CVE-2017-0149","kev_date_added":"2022-05-24","published":"2017-03-17"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Internet Explorer Memory Corruption","id":"CVE-2015-2502","kev_date_added":"2022-04-13","published":"2015-08-19"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Microsoft Internet Explorer Memory Corruption","id":"CVE-2015-2419","kev_date_added":"2022-03-28","published":"2015-07-14"}],"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":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-07","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary code in Internet Explorer by tricking users into dragging and dropping a maliciously crafted file from an SMB share.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2006-3281/"}
