Anti-Auto-JS-Redirection

Hi all,

Here is a filter that converts JavaScript redirects to an option.

[Patterns]
Name = "<script>: Anti-Auto-JS-Redirection"
Active = TRUE
URL = "$TYPE(htm)"
Bounds = "$NEST(<script,</script*>)"
Limit = 512
Match = "*.location(.href|)="([^"'+]++)1 " (^+)*"
Replace = "<center><a class="prox" href="1">[JS Redirect]</a></center>$STOP()"

As always, if you don't use stylesheets, the replacement can be simplified to:

Replace = "<center><a href="1">[JS Redirect]</a></center>$STOP()"

regards, sidki

i'm not using this filter but it should not place html in script tags because all bounds are replaced. have you modified the filter?

I think this one would be perfect candidate for a function replacement a la PRX_open? (sadly redefining of location.replace does not seem to work with IE5.0 but 5.5 and up allow it at least although it would be problematic with location.href I admit)

Let's see where this reply is placed in the thread

I didn't notice that on my box yet (XP, IE6) as long as i, as altosax stated, replace the whole script.

Paul Rupe has implemented that in version 1.32 of start.js:

Code:

// Intercept calls to *.location = or *.location.replace() function setLocationPROX(l) {   if (pageIsLoadingPROX)     document.write('<center><a class=proxlink target=_top href="' + l +                    '">[Tame Redirect]</a><center>');   else     top.location = l;   return false; } location.replace = setLocationPROX;

While this works nicely for location.replace(), it has no effect (IE6) on location and (as you mentioned) location.href .

Updated to leave alone URLs containing JS expressions.
Changes in the first post.

If modified accordingly, that is.
