Description

According to the advisory, ZoneAlarm Pro contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to bypass the 'Mobile Code' filter. The 'Mobile Code' blocking feature filters malicious Web objects and any 'application/*' MIME type, but does not filter SSL content. A remote attacker could create a malicious SSL Web page and bypass the Mobile Code filter.

Classification

Location: Remote/Network Access Required
Attack Type: Cryptographic
Impact: Loss of Confidentiality
Exploit: Exploit Unknown
OSVDB: Myth/Fake

Solution

According to the vendor, "ZoneAlarm Pro, Security Suite and Integrity products which employ Mobile Code Protection/ID Lock features do not inspect encrypted
traffic. If mobile code is downloaded via a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) session, it will not be inspected by these products. This is by design and mandated by the SSL Protocol specification."
