Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5 and 6.0 does not properly check the Cascading Style Sheet input parameter for Modal dialogs, which allows remote attackers to read files on the local system via a web page containing script that creates a dialog and then accesses the target files, aka "Modal Dialog script execution."

Security readout for executives and security teams

This old Internet Explorer flaw could let a malicious web page read files from a visitor's local computer. Business urgency is mainly for legacy systems still running Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, or 6.0. The source bundle does not show current active exploitation. Exposure is likely limited to environments retaining the named legacy Internet Explorer versions. Modern estates are unlikely to be affected unless old Windows/browser builds remain in production, lab, kiosk, or operational technology workflows. Prioritize this if legacy Internet Explorer remains anywhere in the business. Otherwise, handle through legacy asset governance and confirm no affected versions are present. Mitigation focus: Check Microsoft MS03-015 and apply the vendor-recommended security update where applicable.; Retire Internet Explorer 5.01, 5.5, and 6.0 from production systems.; Block general web browsing from any system that must retain affected browser versions..
