CVE-2006-1190

Status: ModifiedHigh (10)—💥 Exploit

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 through 6 does not always return the correct IOleClientSite information when dynamically creating an embedded object, which could cause Internet Explorer to run the object in the wrong security context or zone, and allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).

💥 Public exploits

Exploit code or detection templates are publicly available. This is not the same as confirmed active exploitation (KEV), but it raises the risk: patch with priority.
