Affected versions of iedriver insecurely download an executable over an unencrypted HTTP connection.
In scenarios where an attacker has a privileged network position, it is possible to intercept the response and replace the executable with a malicious one, resulting in code execution on the system running iedriver.
Update to iedriver version 3.0.0 or greater.
