Description
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 and possibly others allows remote attackers to upload arbitrary file contents when users press a key corresponding to the JavaScript (1) event.ctrlKey or (2) event.shiftKey onkeydown event contained in a webpage. NOTE: it was reported that the vendor has disputed the severity of this issue.
