Thread: Outlook Express Attachment Carriage Return/Linefeed Encapsulation Filtering Bypass Vu

  1. #1

    Question Outlook Express Attachment Carriage Return/Linefeed Encapsulation Filtering Bypass Vu

    It is possible to send attachments to Outlook Express users using non-standard attachment techniques. This can be accomplished by encapsulating the data in Carriage Return () specifiers in the Subject line of an email.

    Upon receiving an email with a subject line containing carriage returns, Outlook Express will interpret the data section of the mail beginning in the subject line. This problem is compounded by the fact that mail filtering utilities do not search the subject line for this type of data, and can allow a malicious file to pass to an Outlook Express user.

    Remote: Yes

    Exploit: No

    Vulnerable: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.5
    Microsoft Outlook Express 6.0

    lol, yep! I just was reading around, submitted my opinion on the poll, and noticed a UN similar to this guy... a thought was sparked, and I was like "HAHAHAHA! I got him now!" Not that anything is wrong with you working there, KOBBRAS, it's just been my goal to find out that you do, hehe.
