[Declude.Virus] hlp attachments

2004-12-28 Thread John Tolmachoff \(Lists\)
I just had a client request blocking of hlp attachments. I have been
extremely busy with 2 major projects and have not seen anything about this.

Any one have information on a virus that uses that?

Re: [Declude.Virus] hlp attachments

2004-12-28 Thread Darrell \([EMAIL PROTECTED])
FYI - Not sure about hlp, but there is an exploit with chm (windows help 
files). 

Microsoft Internet Explorer Fully Automated Remote Compromise
Summary: Summary
A vulnerability exists in Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6.0 on Windows 
XP SP2 or Windows Server 2003 due to the combination of multiple known 
security holes found in Windows Service Pack 2. A remote attacker could 
exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable systems 
with minimal user interaction. 

Technical Analysis
hhctrl.ocx is the Microsoft HTML Help ActiveX control which supports all 
functions of the user help interface. The lack of restrictions set in 
Internet Explorer allow web pages to open any local webpage or a Windows 
Help file(.chm) compiled with HTML help via hh.exe, the HTML Help tool. An 
attacker may host a malicious web page that utilizes hhctrl.ocx to launch a 
help pop-up window that opens the location of a webpage or a Windows Help 
file(.chm) in the 'local' zone. hhctrl.ocx can then be used to navigate to a 
javascript handler that allows an arbitrary remote program to be injected 
into the previously opened page and executed. The HHClick() function can be 
used to automate the vulnerability and bypass the need for user interaction. 
Since some systems may not have this particular ActiveX control, successful 
exploitation requires Windows Server 2003 hosts to have hhctrl.ocx 
installed. 

Platform: 1 - Microsoft
Product/version: XP SP2 and Server 2003
