Hi

Does anyone know how to block or redirect pages that contain a response
header / redirection Location-header containing the string "URL:"  ?

Best Regards,

1) A variant of the "Location:" local resource access vulnerability can
be exploited via a specially crafted URL in the "Location:" HTTP header
to open local files.

[ The example cut out to avoid false alarms. See more in the advisories ]"

[...]

Solution:
- Disable Active Scripting support for all but trusted web sites.
- Filter "Location:" headers containing the "URL:" prefix in a proxy
server. - Use another browser.
