Actually, you don't even have to be web response-specific.
Any Internet-based site delivering a header or URL-style element containing:
 "C:\"
"ms-its":

.. deserves to be blocked.

To add fresh example to my previous reply post:


There is new 0 day exploit used by more addware/spyware....==Malware.
If you have DownloadSecurity6, it blocks it.

ISA2004 users without DownloadSecurity can use http header checking feature to 
Block this malicious code.

Check if 302 reply is found with string in http header:" ms-its:" & 
"Help\iexplore.chm"

Then block this connection .

This is reply from webserver you have to block:

====

HTTP/1.1 302 Found  Via: 1.0 ISASERVER  Connection: Keep-Alive  
Proxy-Connection: Keep-Alive  Content-Length: 4  Date: Tue, 08 Jun 
2004 08:00:49 GMT  Location: 
URL:ms-its:C:\WINDOWS\Help\iexplore.chm::/iegetsrt.htm  Content-Type: text/html 
 Server: Resin/2.1.11

====


"Location: URL:ms-its:C:\WINDOWS\Help\iexplore.chm::/iegetsrt.htm" shouldn't 
pass trough otherwise this exploit works(Location 
should not point to your  disk)

If your clients run WinXP with SP2 they will be not affected if it passes 
trough ISA.

Thanks,

I seriously think this is something worth looking into. It is probably our
#1 or #2 issue right now. It can take up to a few hours to clean a system
from all the crap these (*&#$@(*& install. It is extremely prevelent on
home PC's along with all the spyware. I am also working with the local
school district to find a solution for their systems as well. They are
having a hell of a time keeping their machines clean.

Hi Ray,

That's a good question. I haven't researched yet what methods are used to
installed scumware on user's computers. I'm sure a variety of methods are
used. I plan to do this if/when I update the application layer filtering kit
to version ISA 2004. I sure its as easy as blocking extensions and content
types, but the devil is always in the details.
