Re: DLL hijacking with ZIP files in email?

if you email a web page, tipically all files are unzipped when the user
double clicks on any .html file

but I still don't see this as something drastically different from double
clicking on exe files...

The essence of DLL hijacking is to deliver an innocent file together
with a malicious DLL, in the one directory. Would it be possible to do
this via email: a ZIP (or similar) archive containing the two files?

i don't know of a way to do this with ZIP archives. the daemontools /
easycd / related tools which automount ISO and other archive images as
drive letters on the host are vulnerable.  autorun on/off may add
insult to injury with such services...
