entitled Chromium, in 2008. Google Chrome is best known for its fast speed,
simplicity and reliability.

IV. DESCRIPTION
-------------------------
Google Chrome has an inbuilt file downloader[1], just like every other
browser. However, the behavior of this function is different from other
browsers and provides users much more usability and convenience. Chrome
automatically downloads a file from any site that is passed using the
Content-Disposition header value "attachment" (on the contrary, all other
browsers show a save as dialog). There are some mitigations done by Chrome

Cisco Security Advisory: Multiple Vulnerabilities in Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client

When the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client is deployed from the
VPN headend, an SSL connection is initiated to the VPN headend using
a web browser. After the user logs in, the browser displays a portal
window and when the user clicks the "Start AnyConnect" link, the
process of downloading the Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client
begins. This action causes the browser to first download a "helper"
application that aids in downloading and executing the actual Cisco
AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client. The helper application is a Java
applet on the Linux and MacOS X platforms, and either a Java applet
on the Windows platform or an ActiveX control if the browser is

Hello Bugtraq!

I want to warn you about File Download and Denial of Service vulnerabilities
in Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome and Opera. Earlier I
already wrote about DoS vulnerabilities in different browsers via different
protocol handlers. And now I'll tell about research concerned with attacks
via protocols http and ftp which I made already in 2008 and published at
30.06.2010.

FW: [Full-disclosure] File Access Vulnerability in Easy File Sharing Web Server

I actually DID try to access the .sdb in Ubuntu but that was before I identified the file format of the db as myDB as noted.  I do not know of a 'nix based tool for access to the db.  If you just want to verify, you can open the .sdb with a text/hex editor and parse out a filename for yourself - it's pretty straight forward.  If you want to script the download of all files on a vulnerable server (for testing, of course) then you'll probably need to go ahead and set up a VM.

File Access Vulnerability in Easy File Sharing Web Server

About:
Easy File Sharing Web Server is an extremely popular web-based file sharing application that has been in use for years.  
It is a fast, easy to use commercial, standalone "all-in-one" file-sharing web server.  

Customers use a built-in interface to point to files they wish to publish via a menu-driven web application (typically full drives or directories).  Files can be shared anonymously, or via EFSWS's built-in user management.   EFSWS has built-in SSL encryption to prevent logons from being sent in the clear (as well as all other access).    Users log in, and are presented with a menu of files that have been published and that are made available for download.   

EFSWS uses the MGH Software "myDB" database plug-in to store db information such as file location, user information (password in the clear), files, forum information, etc.   A free db parser is available at:
http://www.mghsoft.com/

Please see vendor site and db engine site for more details.

RE: [Full-disclosure] Microsoft Help Files (.CHM): 'Locked File' Feature Bypass

FYI- I tried your example file and by default nothing worked on Windows 7.  The "loading and embedded file" says "this file is blocked", The file spawn requires a script prompt with a "automation error" after that, the windows control panel didn't launch at all,  and the files required me to save them, etc.

The text from the uri handler did work, but I'm not sure what the ramifications of that are. Oh, the Action Panel did show up. 

I agree this isn't an "exploit" but I guess it is somewhat interesting.  Of course, downloading random .chm files is akin to downloading any remote content-rendering document, except that .chm won't automatically run from the internet in the first place, even with your rendering code in it that must be accepted by the user to load in the first place.  

As such (again, notwithstanding the mild interest around it) I'm confused by the "This was the response I expected" comment because if I read it right, it sounds as if you are being condemning for some reason.  Are you saying "this is the response I expected" because it is the correct response and you are aware of what would be required to push out supported hotfixes for low impact issues, or are you saying "this is the response I expected" because you somehow think it SHOULD be hotfixed, but is not, and that is "typical" (as in "irresponsible") or something like that?

It actually brings up a question that I find more interesting than the issue itself, which is "how far is too far?"  If MSFT designs a system around identifying files sourced from different zones in an attempt to mitigate risk of end-users downloading unknown content and immediately executing it, how far beyond user-acknowledgment and feature disabling (as even your "bypass" example shows) do you think a vendor is supposed to go (Not YOU, but the royal "you")?
