[Declude.JunkMail] Outlook 'Blank Folding' Vulnerability

2007-12-03 Thread Mon Mariola - Rubén
The program incredimail generates subjects, in certain cases, ended with 
0D 0A 09 0D 0A. These messages are captured by Declude virus like Outlook 
'Blank Folding' Vulnerability. I want to send a letter requesting to 
technical support solve this problem, but I really do not see the point 
3.2.3 in RFC 822 indicating that this is not allowed.


Thank you.
Ruben Marti.
Mon Mariola, S.L.


From Declude manual:


Outlook 'Blank Folding' Vulnerability: This vulnerability occurs when there 
is a line in the headers with just a single space or a single tab character. 
Outlook can treat this as the end of the headers, allowing it to see a virus 
that is embedded in the headers. RFC822 3.2.3 says that it is not valid to 
have such lines, nor is there any legitimate reason for an E-mail to contain 
a blank line in the headers with a single space or tab (note that it is OK 
to have a line with a single space or tab in the E-mail body, just not the 
headers).

Ruben,

In your Virus.cfg file, add the following line:

   ALLOWVULNERABILITYOLBLANKFOLDING

This will turn off this vulnerability detection.  There have been no 
viruses that I know of that have exploited this flaw, and it is quite 
possible that this flaw no longer exists since it is around 5 years old 
now.  You might also want to consider turning off other vulnerability 
detections due to the propensity of them hitting legitimate E-mail.  
Here's a list:


   BANPARTIALOFF
   ALLOWVULNERABILITYOLCR
   ALLOWVULNERABILITYOLSPACEGAP
   ALLOWVULNERABILITYOLMIMESEGMIMEPRE
   ALLOWVULNERABILITYMIMESEGMIMEPOST

Matt,

So far, the only case where I find this vulnerability is in the mail sent 
from the program Incredimail.


If these lines are actually prohibited in RFC, it is safer to seek 
Incredimail technical support to solve your problem.


But I fear that the explanation in Declude manual is false and that there is 
a section in RFC that says clearly that these lines are not allowed.


Thank you.
Ruben Marti.

Disable it and be done with it.  There is no option to partially support 
the issue, and the issue is very likely not a threat.  Just because 
something isn't RFC compliant doesn't mean that it is a threat.  The 
vulnerability was from Outlook displaying attachments that were hidden 
by bad encoding, but that flaw was likely patched, or at least it has 
not been exploited in mass.
