An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: Yes. Attackers have exploited CVE-2017-0059 in the wild since at least 28 Mar 2022.\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-2017-0059/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-0059/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-0059","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-0059/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-0059","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-36pj-p9j3-7rr9"],"analysis":{"component_type":"browser","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["data_read"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Internet Explorer","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted website in Internet Explorer.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"information_disclosure"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":"internet_explorer","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cisa-adp","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 through 11 allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted web site, aka \"Internet Explorer Information Disclosure Vulnerability.\" This vulnerability is different from those described in CVE-2017-0008 and CVE-2017-0009.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":3,"first_seen":"2017-03-20","github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2017-03-20","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"41661","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 - 'textarea.defaultValue' Memory Disclosure (MS17-006)"},{"date":"2017-07-24","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"42354","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Internet Explorer - 'mshtml.dll' Remote Code Execution (MS17-007)"},{"date":"2017-10-17","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"43125","stars":null,"title":"Microsoft Internet Explorer 11 (Windows 7 x86) - 'mshtml.dll' Remote Code Execution (MS17-007)"}],"tier":"exploited"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Microsoft Internet Explorer Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2017-0059","indexable":true,"kev":{"dateAdded":"2022-03-28","dueDate":"2022-04-18","knownRansomwareCampaignUse":"Unknown","product":"Internet Explorer","requiredAction":"Apply updates per vendor instructions.","vendorProject":"Microsoft","vulnerabilityName":"Microsoft Internet Explorer Information Disclosure Vulnerability"},"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:internet_explorer","products":["microsoft:internet_explorer"],"type":"information_disclosure","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Windows GDI+","id":"CVE-2017-0060"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Windows","id":"CVE-2017-0058"},"products":["Internet Explorer"],"published":"2017-03-17","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":"open","licence":"CC0 1.0","name":"CISA KEV"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"GPL-2.0-or-later","name":"Exploit-DB"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"active","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-10-21","vendors":["Microsoft Corporation"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can obtain sensitive information from process memory via a crafted website in Internet Explorer.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-0059/"}
