MHTML Mime-Formatted Request Vulnerability - CVE-2011-1894
An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the way that MHTML interprets MIME-formatted requests for content that are embedded in an HTML document. Similar to server-side cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities, it is possible under certain conditions for this vulnerability to allow an attacker to inject a client-side script in the response to a web request run in the context of the user's instance of Internet Explorer.
To view this vulnerability as a standard entry in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures list, see CVE-2011-1894.
Mitigating Factors for MHTML Mime-Formatted Request Vulnerability - CVE-2011-1894
Mitigation refers to a setting, common configuration, or general best-practice, existing in a default state, that could reduce the severity of exploitation of a vulnerability. The following mitigating factors may be helpful in your situation:
- By default, Internet Explorer on Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2008 R2 runs in a restricted mode that is known as Enhanced Security Configuration. This mode mitigates this vulnerability. See the FAQ section for this vulnerability for more information about Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration.
- By default, all supported versions of Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, and Windows Mail open HTML e-mail messages in the Restricted sites zone, which disables script and ActiveX controls, removing the risk of an attacker being able to use this vulnerability to execute malicious code. If a user clicks a link in an e-mail message, the user could still be vulnerable to exploitation of this vulnerability through the web-based attack scenario.
- In a web-based attack scenario, an attacker could host a web site that contains a web page that is used to exploit this vulnerability. In addition, compromised web sites and web sites that accept or host user-provided content or advertisements could contain specially crafted content that could exploit this vulnerability. In all cases, however, an attacker would have no way to force users to visit these web sites. Instead, an attacker would have to convince users to visit the web site, typically by getting them to click a link in an e-mail message or Instant Messenger message that takes users to the attacker's web site.
Workarounds for MHTML Mime-Formatted Request Vulnerability - CVE-2011-1894
Workaround refers to a setting or configuration change that does not correct the underlying vulnerability but would help block known attack vectors before you apply the update. Microsoft has tested the following workarounds and states in the discussion whether a workaround reduces functionality:
Disable the MHTML protocol handler
Warning If you use Registry Editor incorrectly, you may cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that you can solve problems that result from using Registry Editor incorrectly. Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
Interactive method:
To manually disable the MHTML protocol handler, follow these steps:
- Open Registry Editor.
- Navigate to the following registry key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PROTOCOLS\Handler\mhtml - Back up the mhtml registry key by right-clicking it, selecting Export, and saving it as a registry file (i.e., "mhtml pluggable protocol registry backup.reg").
- Delete the mhtml key from the registry by right-clicking it and selecting Delete.
Using a managed deployment script:
To disable the MHTML protocol handler using a managed deployment script, follow these steps:
- Back up the mhtml registry key using the following command line entry:
regedit /e mhtml_pluggable_protocol_registry_backup.reg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PROTOCOLS\Handler\mhtml - Create the managed deployment script by saving the following to a file with a .reg extension (i.e., disable_mhtml_pluggable_protocol.reg):
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PROTOCOLS\Handler\mhtml] - Run the managed deployment script on a target system using the following command line entry:
regedit.exe /s disable_mhtml_pluggable_protocol.reg
Impact of workaround. The MHTML protocol will cease to function. Any application that uses MHTML will be affected by this workaround.
How to undo the workaround. To undo this workaround, double-click the backup registry file created using the above procedures.
FAQ for MHTML Mime-Formatted Request Vulnerability - CVE-2011-1894
What is the scope of the vulnerability?
This is an information disclosure vulnerability.
What causes the vulnerability?
The vulnerability is caused when MHTML interprets MIME-formatted requests for content that are embedded in an HTML document, making it possible for an attacker to run script in the wrong security context (for example, some scripts could be run in the incorrect Internet Explorer security zone).
What is MHTML?
MHTML (MIME Encapsulation of Aggregate HTML) is an Internet standard that defines the MIME structure that is used to wrap HTML content. The MHTML protocol handler in Windows provides a pluggable protocol (MHTML:) that permits MHTML encoded documents to be rendered in applications. For more information, see the MSDN article, About Asynchronous Pluggable Protocols.
What is cross-site scripting(XSS)?
Cross-site scripting (XSS) is a class of security vulnerability that can enable an attacker to inject script into the response of a web page. This script is then run by the requesting application, often times a web browser. The script could then spoof content, disclose information, or take any action that the user could take on the affected web site on behalf of the targeted user.
What might an attacker use the vulnerability to do?
An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could inject a client-side script into the user's instance of Internet Explorer. The script could spoof content, disclose information, or take any action that the user could take on the affected web site on behalf of the targeted user.
How could an attacker exploit the vulnerability?
An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could create a web site that embeds a malicious script into the page using the HTML <EMBED> tag. The attacker could then convince a user to visit the site, thereby allowing an attacker to run a client-side script in the wrong security context. The script could spoof content, disclose information, or take any action that the user could take on a web site.
What systems are primarily at risk from the vulnerability?
This vulnerability requires that a user be logged on and visiting a web site for any malicious action to occur. Therefore, any systems where Internet Explorer is used frequently, such as workstations or terminal servers, are at the most risk from this vulnerability.
I am running Internet Explorer for Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Server 2008 R2. Does this mitigate this vulnerability?
Yes. By default, Internet Explorer on Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2008 R2 runs in a restricted mode that is known as Enhanced Security Configuration. Enhanced Security Configuration is a group of preconfigured settings in Internet Explorer that can reduce the likelihood of a user or administrator downloading and running specially crafted web content on a server. This is a mitigating factor for web sites that you have not added to the Internet Explorer Trusted sites zone.
What does the update do?
The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting the way that the MHTML parser handles requests.
When this security bulletin was issued, had this vulnerability been publicly disclosed?
Yes. This vulnerability has been publicly disclosed. It has been assigned Common Vulnerability and Exposure number CVE-2011-1894.
When this security bulletin was issued, had Microsoft received any reports that this vulnerability was being exploited?
No. Microsoft had not received any information to indicate that this vulnerability had been publicly used to attack customers when this security bulletin was originally issued.

To verify that a security update has been applied to an affected system, you may be able to use the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA) tool. See the section, Detection and Deployment Tools and Guidance, earlier in this bulletin for more information.File Version Verification
Because there are several editions of Microsoft Windows, the following steps may be different on your system. If they are, see your product documentation to complete these steps.- Click Start, and then click Search.
- In the Search Results pane, click All files and folders under Search Companion.
- In the All or part of the file name box, type a file name from the appropriate file information table, and then click Search.
- In the list of files, right-click a file name from the appropriate file information table, and then click Properties.
Note Depending on the edition of the operating system, or the programs that are installed on your system, some of the files that are listed in the file information table may not be installed. - On the Version tab, determine the version of the file that is installed on your system by comparing it to the version that is documented in the appropriate file information table.
Note Attributes other than the file version may change during installation. Comparing other file attributes to the information in the file information table is not a supported method of verifying that the update has been applied. Also, in certain cases, files may be renamed during installation. If the file or version information is not present, use one of the other available methods to verify update installation.
Registry Key Verification
You may also be able to verify the files that this security update has installed by reviewing the registry keys listed in the Reference Table in this section.These registry keys may not contain a complete list of installed files. Also, these registry keys may not be created correctly when an administrator or an OEM integrates or slipstreams this security update into the Windows installation source files.

Deployment Information
Installing the Update
When you install this security update, the installer checks whether one or more of the files that are being updated on your system have previously been updated by a Microsoft hotfix.
If you have previously installed a hotfix to update one of these files, the installer copies the RTMQFE, SP1QFE, or SP2QFE files to your system. Otherwise, the installer copies the RTMGDR, SP1GDR, or SP2GDR files to your system. Security updates may not contain all variations of these files. For more information about this behavior, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 824994.
For more information about the installer, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 832475.
For more information about the terminology that appears in this bulletin, such as hotfix, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 824684.
This security update supports the following setup switches.
| Switch | Description |
|---|---|
| /help | Displays the command-line options. |
| Setup Modes | |
| /passive | Unattended Setup mode. No user interaction is required, but installation status is displayed. If a restart is required at the end of Setup, a dialog box will be presented to the user with a timer warning that the computer will restart in 30 seconds. |
| /quiet | Quiet mode. This is the same as unattended mode, but no status or error messages are displayed. |
| Restart Options | |
| /norestart | Does not restart when installation has completed. |
| /forcerestart | Restarts the computer after installation and force other applications to close at shutdown without saving open files first. |
| /warnrestart[:x] | Presents a dialog box with a timer warning the user that the computer will restart in x seconds. (The default setting is 30 seconds.) Intended for use with the /quiet switch or the /passive switch. |
| /promptrestart | Displays a dialog box prompting the local user to allow a restart. |
| Special Options | |
| /overwriteoem | Overwrites OEM files without prompting. |
| /nobackup | Does not back up files needed for uninstall. |
| /forceappsclose | Forces other programs to close when the computer shuts down. |
| /log:path | Allows the redirection of installation log files. |
| /integrate:path | Integrates the update into the Windows source files. These files are located at the path that is specified in the switch. |
| /extract[:path] | Extracts files without starting the Setup program. |
| /ER | Enables extended error reporting. |
| /verbose | Enables verbose logging. During installation, creates %Windir%\CabBuild.log. This log details the files that are copied. Using this switch may cause the installation to proceed more slowly. |
Note You can combine these switches into one command. For backward compatibility, the security update also supports many of the setup switches that the earlier version of the Setup program uses. For more information about the supported installation switches, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 262841.
