Hi Hany,
An easy way to check would be to go to the directory Winnt\system32 and
see the version of the file "Mshtml.dll" by opening its properties and
checking its version. If it matches any of the following mentioned below
as per the OS and the Service Pack combination, then the system is
vulnerable.
This nessus plugin checks for the version of "mshtml.dll" in the various
OS installations.
(os:"5.2", sp:0, file:"Mshtml.dll", version:"6.0.3790.373",
(os:"5.2", sp:1, file:"Mshtml.dll", version:"6.0.3790.2491",
(os:"5.1", sp:1, file:"Mshtml.dll", version:"6.0.2800.1515",
(os:"5.1", sp:2, file:"Mshtml.dll", version:"6.0.2900.2722",
(os:"5.0", file:"Mshtml.dll", version:"6.0.2800.1515",
min_version:"6.0.0.0",
(os:"5.0", file:"Mshtml.dll", version:"5.0.3831.1800",
Thanks
Proneet.
