I have an NTLM auth proxy, but a number of apps do not seem to be smart

I was thinking of creating a browser ACL with entries the will cover the
browsers in use on the network and then try to use a NOT operator like

http_access allow !known_browsers

before the auth required setting.

thoughts?


this is a very very bad exploit so i wodn't ever cosider it.
it means that every user that will change the broeser id (firefox-> about:config -> change variable ->done)
can use your proxy.
if you will do such a thing at least but not least use
http_access allow localnet !known_browsers

i would suggest to analyze these apps.
they do use most of the time specific domains that you can allow without any ntlm auth.
