[security-alerts] FW: [SA22542] Internet Explorer 7 Popup Address Bar Spoofing Weakness



> 
> TITLE:
> Internet Explorer 7 Popup Address Bar Spoofing Weakness
> 
> SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
> SA22542
> 
> VERIFY ADVISORY:
> http://secunia.com/advisories/22542/
> 
> CRITICAL:
> Less critical
> 
> IMPACT:
> Spoofing
> 
> WHERE:
> From remote
> 
> SOFTWARE:
> Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.x
> http://secunia.com/product/12366/
> 
> DESCRIPTION:
> A weakness has been discovered in Internet Explorer, which can be
> exploited by malicious people to conduct phishing attacks.
> 
> The problem is that it's possible to display a popup with a somewhat
> spoofed address bar where a number of special characters have been
> appended to the URL. This makes it possible to only display a part of
> the address bar, which may trick users into performing certain
> unintended actions.
> 
> Secunia has constructed a demonstration, which is available at:
> http://secunia.com/internet_explorer_7_popup_address_bar_spoof
> ing_test/
> 
> The weakness is confirmed in Internet Explorer 7 on a fully patched
> Windows XP SP2 system.
> 
> SOLUTION:
> Do not follow links from untrusted sources.
> 
> PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
> Discovered by an anonymous person.
