Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Microsoft Outlook Express and Windows Mail, which could be exploited by remote attackers to disclose sensitive information or take complete control of an affected system.

The first issue is caused by an error in the MHTML protocol handler that does not properly interpret URL redirections, which could be exploited by a malicious web site to bypass domain restrictions and read data from another domain.

The second vulnerability is caused by a memory corruption error when handling specially crafted local or UNC navigation requests, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary code by tricking a user into clicking a specially crafted link in an e-mail message.

The third issue is caused by an error in the MHTML protocol handler that does not properly interpret HTTP headers when returning MHTML content, which could be exploited by a malicious web sites to conduct cross-domain scripting attacks.

The fourth vulnerability is caused by an error in the way the MHTML protocol handler passes Content-Disposition notifications back to the browser, which could be exploited by a malicious web site to bypass domain restrictions and read data from another domain.
