CVE-2008-3474
Status: ModifiedMedium (6.5)—
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 and 7 does not properly determine the domain or security zone of origin of web script, which allows remote attackers to bypass the intended cross-domain security policy and obtain sensitive information via a crafted HTML document, aka "Cross-Domain Information Disclosure Vulnerability."
CVSS
- Version: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
- Base score: 6.5
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 28%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 98
- Score date: 10/9/2026
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).
