Summary

Microsoft XML Core Services (aka MSXML) 3.0 and 6.0 does not properly restrict the information transmitted by Internet Explorer during a download action, which allows remote attackers to discover (1) full pathnames on the client system and (2) local usernames embedded in these pathnames via a crafted web site, aka "MSXML Entity URI Vulnerability."

Exploit prediction

14.36% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 96% of all scored CVEs (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-09).

Fencer Intel keeps one entry per vulnerability: the CVE id wins, then GHSA, and records that alias each other are merged, except that two CVEs always keep separate entries. The same data is available as JSON.
