Opening behavior for Email forms containing code or scripts must be controlled.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>InfoPath notifies and prompts users before opening InfoPath email forms that contain code or script. If this restriction is relaxed, InfoPath will open email forms that contain code or script without prompting users, which could allow malicious code to run on the users' computers.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility>System Administrator</Responsibility><Responsibility>Information Assurance Officer</Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
