Web browsers are the primary interface for accessing the information on the World Wide Web. This paper examines the relative vulnerability of web browsers. More specifically, the paper explores the use of WIN32 DLLs and API calls and how the modification of the return values and out parameters of the dangerous APIs affects browser. Results suggest that the APIs and DLLs used by the four web browsers (Opera, Mozilla Firefox, Netscape Navigator, and Internet Explorer) are similar with few Exceptions. None of the more rarely used APIs have been specifically used by attackers to exploit security holes in the web browsers.
