Interpretation conflict in file.inc in Drupal 4.5.0 through 4.5.5 and 4.6.0 through 4.6.3 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via HTML in a file with a GIF or JPEG file extension, which causes the HTML to be executed by a victim who views the file in Internet Explorer as a result of CVE-2005-3312. NOTE: it could be argued that this vulnerability is due to a design flaw in Internet Explorer and the proper fix should be in that browser; if so, then this should not be treated as a vulnerability in Drupal.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a stored cross-site scripting issue in very old Drupal versions. An authenticated user could upload a file that looks like an image but contains HTML, then Internet Explorer may render that HTML when another user views it. Risk is mainly to legacy Drupal sites with uploads enabled. Exposure is most plausible on internet-facing legacy Drupal 4.5.x or 4.6.x sites that still allow authenticated users to upload files. Modern Drupal sites are not identified as affected in the bundle. Treat this as a legacy-system cleanup item unless an affected Drupal site is still public-facing with user uploads. Prioritize remediation where the site handles authenticated users, administrator sessions, or sensitive content. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected Drupal 4.5.x or 4.6.x sites to fixed or supported releases.; Apply Drupal SA-2005-008 vendor patch guidance where upgrade is constrained.; Restrict file upload privileges to trusted users only..
