Internet Explorer File Download Extension Spoofing Test

Click Here to Perform Test!


After you have clicked the link:
If your Internet Explorer/Opera is vulnerable to this issue, a "File Download" dialog box will be displayed with the field "File name" or "File" being spoofed to be a .pdf file.

If you choose "Open" in the "File Download" dialog box, the file will be executed as an HTML executable instead of being displayed with your favorit PDF viewer. This happens even though the filename seems to be "Secunia_Internet_Explorer.pdf" or "Secunia.pdf".


About this test:
