AV:N/AC:L/AU:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 does not properly handle certain character strings in the Path attribute, which can cause it to modify cookies in other domains when the attacker's domain name is within the target's domain name or when wildcard DNS is being used, which allows remote attackers to hijack web sessions.
