Microsoft's Internet Explorer has become a turkey shoot for flaw finders.

This week, three more vulnerabilities were found in version 6 of the software giant's flagship Web browser, security information provider Secunia said on Wednesday. That brings the total number of IE vulnerabilities disclosed in the past two months to 19, including eight flaws fixed by Microsoft during its October patch cycle.

The latest flaws were found by two different researchers, Secunia said. Two could be used together to allow malicious content to bypass an mechanism in Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 that alerts people about potentially harmful programs, Secunia stated. The third vulnerability could be used to overwrite the cookies of a trusted site to hijack a Web session, if the site handles authentication in an insecure manner, according to that advisory.
