Bypass Firefox's Phishing Filter


Recommended Posts

This should be reported to mozilla to be fixed as soon as possible.

But theres a bug in firefox. lets say there test page for the "its-a-trap".

Ok so you got there URL:

http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/its-a-trap.html

Firefox detects it as phishing.

Now, look at this URL:

http://www.mozilla.com/firefox////its-a-trap.html

Firefox no longer detects that page as phishing.

Notice anything different about the URL?

"////" is added before the HTML Page. Hmmm....

This needs to be reported and fixed by mozilla as soon as possible.

If this is voilating the rules of Neowin then please remove the links and the way i have explained this! Im just showing you guys so you can report this seen as i dont know how to report this bug.

Thanks,

Matthew

That's not a bug, i assume it's a mis configuration of the URL's

http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/its-a-trap.html points to http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/its-a-trap.html which is detected

http://www.mozilla.com/firefox////its-a-trap.html points to http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/its-a-trap.html which isn't detected.

So basically, the URL isn't in the list as suspicious, but it should still be reported on bugzilla anyway.
