The wording in ms04-040 is so vague, I am not entirely sure that this patch is a fix for the IFRAME bug(s)? > *** Make sure you are patched after installing *** > I installed it using "Automatic Updates" (on Win2ksp4), rebooted and loaded > my InternetExploiter.html: IT STILL WORKED!! > Even though both "Automatic Updates" and "http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com" > reported that I was patched!?! > I manually downloaded the exe and ran it, rebooted and now I'm finally truely > patched. Just so I am clear, after automatic updates applied the "critical patch" on W2KSP4 and rebooted, the IFRAME exploit still worked, but manually downloading the executable given in the Microsoft alert and running it results in a system on which the IFRAME exploit no longer works? This would be confirmation that ms04-040 actually does address the IFRAME exploit. Kevin _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
