Gives dialog box to open or save a "blabla.hta" and no, it does not self-execute even under low security settings.
Your post isn't verry informative what kind of system did you test it on? It worked on my fully patched windows XP If you'd examine the code you'd understand that it *is* working what happens is basicly this 1. get a shortcut 2. modify shortcut + parameters 3. save shortcut to disk 4. execute shortcut You seem to be having an issue with step 4 The way step 4 works is , we pass mshta.exe an url as argument and on my pc it then proceeds to open and run the .hta directly For one reason or the other you seem to be getting a prompt here. BUT! in order to get the prompt you allready had to have been thru step 1-3, and thats enough for exploitation anyway, since you could just as easily create a shortcut that calls cmd.exe with "/c format a:" as argument and than store that shortcut in the "all users" startup folder
try again Jelmer?
Dont you mean try again http-equiv ? Since he was the one who found the issue, I just wrote the exploit code he used for the demo, full credit to him
