Yahoo! Messenger Download Dialogue Box File Name Spoofing Vulnerability

A remote download dialogue box spoofing vulnerability affects Yahoo! Messenger. This issue is due to a design error that facilitates the spoofing of file names.

An attacker may leverage this issue to spoof downloaded file names to unsuspecting users. This issue may lead to a compromise of the target computer as well as other consequences.

It should be noted that although only Yahoo! Messenger version 6.0.0.1750 is reportedly affected; earlier versions may be affected as well.
