Multiple browsers are reported prone to an information disclosure weakness. This issue can allow an attacker to determine information such as the location of files, file names and user names on a vulnerable computer. Information gathered through the exploitation of this weakness may aid in other attacks against the computer.
This weakness has been identified in Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Opera.
