Georgi Guninski security advisory #18 - Two serious vulnerabilities have been found Microsoft products - Internet Explorer 5.5/5.x may execute arbitrary programs when visiting a web page, reading HTML based mail with Outlook, or simply browsing folders as web pages. In addition, the default installation of Windows 2000 allows Local Administrator compromise via opening local folders as web pages. In both cases a malicous person may take full control over user's computer / server. Includes proof of concept HTML code. Demonstration available here.
