Wouldn't you want to send the support request to the developers of
incredimail? They are the ones who are generating the invalid header.
Declude is only warning you about it.

 From Declude manual:

 Outlook 'Blank Folding' Vulnerability: This vulnerability occurs when there
 is a line in the headers with just a single space or a single tab character.
 Outlook can treat this as the end of the headers, allowing it to see a virus
 that is embedded in the headers. RFC822 3.2.3 says that it is not valid to
 have such lines, nor is there any legitimate reason for an E-mail to contain
 a blank line in the headers with a single space or tab (note that it is OK
 to have a line with a single space or tab in the E-mail body, just not the
 headers).

Maybe I explained poorly. I want to send the request to Incredimail 
technical support.


My doubt is that the Declude manual says that according to section 3.2.3 of 
RFC822, it is not valid to

have such lines, and I not located in RFC822 that section.

http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc822.html

After reading the RFC 822, I see that the process unfolding allows these 
lines, but I do not see where specifies that are invalid. I need this 
information for the technical support Incredimail correct this problem.

The 'Blank Folding' vulnerability may be allowed by the RFC, but that 
doesn't make them the right thing to do.  The problem is that virus scanners 
don't scan for attachments that could be embedded into the headers in one of 
these lines but Outlook would still execute them.Just because no virus 
has used this technique yet is not a good reason to continue to leave the 
door open.

I agree with all your comments, but if so, I ask the team declude correct 
the Declude manual to reflect the truth.


Now I read in the Declude manual that RFC does not allow such lines.

It will be difficult to convince the Incredimail technical support to solve 
this problem if I can not find a section in RFC specifying that is not 
allowed.

[Declude.JunkMail] Outlook Blank Folding Vulnerability

We have had a user get a plain-text message he sent out using Thunderbird
1.0.2 that got caught by this check in Declude Junkmail.  Just wondering
what precisely the error is and why Thunderbird-generated messages would be
getting nailed with it.

A similar Outlook CR vulnerability was just discussed; check the

The same things would apply.  The manual does list the gory details of

2005-08-17 Thread Colbeck, Andrew
Instant recap:

Option 1) Let the virus scanner handle it, i.e.

BANCRVIRUSESOFF

Option 2) Upgrade to the current declude.exe and turn off the
vulnerabilities as you find that they cause false positives, i.e.

ALLOWVULNERABILITYOLBLANKFOLDING


I chose Option 1)

Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Outlook Blank Folding Vulnerability

2005-08-17 Thread Matt




Just to clarify one thing. While there are certainly issues with
tagging legitimate E-mail with the Outlook CR Vulnerability, it doesn't
have problems specifically with any popular E-mail clients
including Thunderbird.

The CR issues that were being tagged were likely the result of some
sort of gateway that was modifying the headers on the way out of the
sender's E-mail system where the headers were modified to contain a CR
character instead of a CR  LF which is standard. The sender's
system should be fixed. I certainly wouldn't frown upon turning off
the detection for this.
