How to avoid the new 'Help' URL handler vulnerability
Authored by: neuralstatic on May 19, '04 04:17:32PM

yeah, i used the script that pops up an ok window (OpnApp.scpt edit from macfixit), it seems to work great.

then i just scp'd it to about 20 machines in the shop, and it should be done

How to avoid the new 'Help' URL handler vulnerability

I'm afraid it won't be done. Try this link to launch a script already present on your machine that displays the current date and time or my own 'exploit' at http://schuderer.net/pub/secflaw.html (harmless but still at your own risk). You'll find that you're still vulnerable.
