Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 4.0 through 6.0

Description The issue allows local users to differentiate between alphanumeric and non-alphanumeric characters used in a password by pressing certain control keys. This makes it easier to conduct a brute-force password guessing attack.

Recommendations For Microsoft Internet Explorer versions 4.0 through 6.0, consider disabling the use of control keys that allow jumping between non-alphanumeric characters as a temporary workaround until a patch is available.
