Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Slim Browser version 4.07 build 100

Description The issue allows remote attackers to access restricted information from other domains. This is achieved by using an object tag with a data parameter that references a link on the attacker's site, which specifies a Location HTTP header referencing the target site. The content then becomes available through the outerHTML attribute of the object.

Recommendations For Slim Browser version 4.07 build 100, consider disabling the use of object tags with data parameters until a patch is available. Restrict access to external links that could potentially specify a Location HTTP header referencing other domains to minimize the risk of exploitation.
