Interesting IE leak via window.onerror
Chris Evans has posted an interesting bug in IE involving using JavaScript's window.onerror to leak cross domain data. From his blog
"The bug is pretty simple: IE supports a window.onerror
callback which fires whenever a Javascript parse or runtime error occurs. Trouble is, it fires even if www.evil.com
registers its own window.onerror
handler and then uses <script src="http://www.bank.com/">
. "
