Thanks for the info.
Yeah , i will correct the encoded header ( comment ) now.
But , it's easy to identify the encoding in first view:
1.-browsers doesn't support real time page encryption
because for it you must choose javascript...so
currently are not available fast methods to encrypt pages
in real time and keep the key of encryption secure.
There are libraries like MD5-JS,SHA1-JS , etc for do
encryption in one way: client->client not server->client.
2.-The javascript functions uses simple encoding standard code , that can be
identified with a minimal JS Knowledge.

Best regards to all ;-) ,
PS: I'm working in a md5 file hash system for pages
( yo keep the md5 hashes in a secure file and a script
compares the hashes to the file hashes for check
hacked pages or trojaniced php scripts , a new form
to attack servers that i will to explain in my next paper UWAHCK ).

Dear Paul,
I've testing your exploit ( good one ) for the supposed html encryption
weak
of SaS.
I think yo toke the exploit/perl script from a developers site because
SaS
is using an standard of encoding,
here is the proof :
variables for function _fwk_filter_encrypt($content)
$table =
"0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ_@";
  $xor = 165;
as you see it's not encryption , so , you didn't cracked nothing....
you decoded it !
Then perhaps you'd like to correct your site. In your source code, you
write:
<!-- Web Site desing by Lorenzo Hernandez Garcia-Hierro--><!-- Encrypted
using S
ecurity Application Server of No Secure Root Group Security Research -->

It would appear that Paul was only quoting your term ("encryption" was
enclosed
in quotation marks within his mail) rather than indicating that he really
considered it to be encryption.

FWIW, it's completely useless to encode your content in this way. Try an
even simpler exercise:
[my version of the "exploit", if you will]
1. Visit your site in a browser (I used Mozilla 1.5)
2. Choose "Select All" from the "Edit" menu.
3. Right-click and choose "View Selection Source".

regards,
petard
