CVE-2012-1241

23
FAUCET Score

CVE-2012-1241 describes a vulnerability in ActiveScriptRuby (ASR) versions prior to 1.8.7, specifically within the GRScript18.dll component before version 1.2.2.0. This flaw allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary Ruby code on a victim's system by crafting a malicious HTML document that exploits improper interaction restrictions within an Internet Explorer ActiveX environment. With a CVSS score of 7.5, this vulnerability is considered highly severe due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and potential for complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion has been observed, the underlying weakness (CWE-264) remains a concern for unpatched systems.
