Microsoft Security Advisory (923762): Long URLs to sites using HTTP 1.1 and compressi

Revision Note: Advisory updated to direct customers to the revised version of Microsoft Security Bulletin MS06-042 that includes new updates for Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1. Advisory Summary:Microsoft announced last week that it would be re-releasing MS06-042 Tuesday, August 22, 2006 to address an issue affecting Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 customers discussed in Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 923762. Due to an issue discovered in final testing, Microsoft will not be re-releasing MS06-042 today. This update will be re-released for Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 when it meets an appropriate level of quality for broad distribution. Microsoft is also aware of public reports that this issue can lead to a buffer overrun condition for Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 customers that have MS06-042 applied. We are not aware of attacks that try to use the reported vulnerability or of customer impact at this time. Microsoft is aggressively investigating the public reports. Only customers using Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 are affected, all other customers should continue their deployments of MS06-042. Customers using Internet Explorer 6.0 SP 1 should continue their deployment of MS06-042 and follow the existing guidance provided in Knowledge Base article 923762 and the Suggested Actions section of this Security Advisory.

NAME
HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft - access to Microsoft cookies files SYNOPSIS
use LWP; use HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft; use Win32::TieRegistry(Delimiter => "/"); my $cookies_dir = $Registry-> {"CUser/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Explorer/Shell Folders/Cookies"}; $cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft->new( file => "$cookies_dir\index.dat", 'delayload' => 1, ); my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new; $browser->cookie_jar( $cookie_jar ); DESCRIPTION
This is a subclass of "HTTP::Cookies" which loads Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.x and 6.x for Windows (MSIE) cookie files. See the documentation for HTTP::Cookies. METHODS
The following methods are provided: $cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft->new; The constructor takes hash style parameters. In addition to the regular HTTP::Cookies parameters, HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft recognizes the following: delayload: delay loading of cookie data until a request is actually made. This results in faster runtime unless you use most of the cookies since only the domain's cookie data is loaded on demand. CAVEATS
Please note that the code DOESN'T support saving to the MSIE cookie file format. AUTHOR
