    Greetings!
    
    A quite well known (i.e. ancient) type of proxy vulnerability was
    found for TrendMicro's InterScan VirusWall V3.6  This general problem
    has been known to be an issue with plain HTTP proxies like the Squid
    for ages (e.g. http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/FAQ/FAQ-10.html#ss10.14).
    
    The vulnerability can be exploited using the CONNECT method to
    connect to a different server, e.g. an internal mailserver as
    port usage is completely unrestricted by the ISVW proxies V 3.6
    
    Example:
                 you = 6.6.6.666
                 Trendmicro ISVW = 1.1.1.1  (http proxy at port 80)
                 Internal Mailserver = 2.2.2.2
    
                 connect with "telnet 1.1.1.1 80" to ISVW proxy and enter
                 CONNECT 2.2.2.2:25 / HTTP/1.0
    
                 response: mail server banner - and running SMTP session e.g.
                 to send SPAM from.
    
    You can connect to any TCP port on any machine the proxy
    can connect to. Telnet, SMTP, POP, etc.
    
    
    Solution:
                 Update to ISVW 3.7 Build 1190 or newer (available since some
                 weeks now).
    
    
    temp. Workarounds:
                 - disable the HTTP proxy (safe but inconvenient)
                 - You have a firewall that prevents unauthorized access to the
                   Trend ISVW proxy, don't you?
