SA Bugzilla – Bug 1273
Deceptive URLs using user name
Last modified: 2002-12-23 11:25:07 UTC
I got a spam with a URL which was supposedly to a CNN article, but it was actually as follows: http://www.cnn.com:USArticle1840@www.liquidshirts.com/ Obviously the URL actually links to liquidshirts.com. Apparently there was nothing else suspicious in the headers, so SpamAssassin let it slip completely.
I added a test version of T_WEIRD_PORT to fix it's fp of this message, and added a test rule to look for user/pass combinations in URLs. We'll see how that goes.
