InfoPath 2003 forms as email forms in InfoPath 2010 must be disallowed.


Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-17668 DTOO170 - InfoPath SV-33646r1_rule ECSC-1 Medium
Description
An attacker might target InfoPath 2003 forms to try and compromise an organization's security. InfoPath 2003 did not write a published location for e-mail forms, which means forms could open without a corresponding published location. By default, InfoPath sends all forms via e-mail using InfoPath e-mail forms integration, including forms created using the InfoPath 2003 file format.
