Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and 9, when the Proxy Settings configuration has the same Proxy address and Port values in the HTTP and Secure rows, does not ensure that the SSL lock icon is consistent with the Address bar, which makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof web sites via a crafted HTML document that triggers many HTTPS requests to an arbitrary host, followed by an HTTPS request to a trusted host and then an HTTP request to an untrusted host, a related issue to CVE-2013-1450.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes a browser trust-indicator problem in Internet Explorer 8 and 9. Under a specific proxy configuration, the SSL lock icon could disagree with the address bar, making a spoofed site appear more trustworthy to users. The sources do not provide a CVSS score, vendor patch details, or evidence of active exploitation. Exposure appears limited to environments still using Internet Explorer 8 or 9 with the proxy settings configuration described in the CVE. The provided affected-product metadata is incomplete, so validation should focus on browser inventory and proxy configuration evidence. Treat this as a legacy-browser exposure question rather than an emergency by default. If Internet Explorer 8 or 9 remains in business workflows, prioritize removal or compensating controls because the issue undermines a visible user trust signal. Mitigation focus: Check Microsoft guidance for CVE-2013-1451 and related browser updates.; Inventory and remove remaining Internet Explorer 8 or 9 dependencies.; Review proxy settings for identical HTTP and Secure proxy address and port values..
