SurfControl Filter for SMTP Can Be Bypassed via Nested Zips
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY
SurfControl Filter for SMTP allows for SurfControl's filtering technology
to be bolted on to your existing SMTP server. The rules engine contains a
flaw whereby if an attachment is a .zip and it contains more than 15 zip
files, the 16th zip file will not be scanned by the filter. This probably
works with other archive/file types and possibly on other SurfControl
products.
DETAILS
Vulnerable systems:
* SurfControl Filter for SMTP version 4.6
In order to bypass the filter build a .zip as below:
attach.zip - dummy_folder - a.zip - junk.txt
- b.zip - junk.txt
- c.zip - junk.txt
- d.zip - junk.txt
- e.zip - junk.txt
- f.zip - junk.txt
- g.zip - junk.txt
- h.zip - junk.txt
- i.zip - junk.txt
- j.zip - junk.txt
- k.zip - junk.txt
- m.zip - junk.txt
- n.zip - junk.txt
- o.zip - junk.txt
- p.zip - junk.txt
- z.zip - sneaky.exe << Passes thru!
(The filter sorts the files in attach.zip alphabetically so we name our
files a, b, c, etc to be sure that z.zip is last)
