Hello out there,

This leads to a client side problem also.
The problem is IIS does not escape the response, so one may put some
HTML and javascript in the page returned from www.microsoft.com.
Vulnerabilities:
1) For IE (tested on 5.01, probably other versions) - if the user has
put www.microsoft.com in the Trusted sites security zone, then hostile
javascript and ActiveX may be executed in the Trusted sites security
zone.

even if You mind to see <anyhost>.microsoft.com as a trusted site - it also
works with the update host where You need more rights to use it :-(

http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/%3CIMG%20SRC=javascript:alert("Insecurity
 starts here!\nwindow.location:"+window.location)%3E.ida

[URL probably wrapped]

this also works with IE (5.0 DE) and IMG SRC - I do not have to reload the
page (I guess it's because of the last IE Bug Georgi found - IE starts it
in the security context of the previuosly used page - when pasting the URL
in the location field it does not start when the previous URL was not able
to execute JS)

more over: the <P>-URL puts up the dialog again immediately after closing
the box, so that You have to kill IE...

http://www.microsoft.com/%3CP%20style=left:expression(alert("window.location
:"+window.location))%3E.ida

[URL probably wrapped]

have secure fun, Shalom dann,
NOrbert
