Multiple Browsers Fake url folder & file Same origin Spoof

##############
Abstract
##############

One user open his browser and try to navigate to
http://www.host.com/admin/admin.php this url is in
the remote server and if the user has privileges ,
can access to file admin.php

If the file admin.php isn`t in the server
the user get a 404 http error by server.

If the user try to browse http://www.host.com/admin/
and this path isn´t in the server , the user get again a 404
http error.

If the user press refresh button the page reloads the content
and if the user press ctrl+f5 it refresh all content from
the page.

Some times those http errors like 404 ,403 etc are managed
by a third part app, a toolbar, or with a predefined
dynamic content build inside the browser.

#######################
Explanation
#######################

Multiple browsers have a flaw in this request response
that allow a attacker to spoof the url or spoof the content
from a inexistent file or path or spoof the url and content
from a trust file or Path.

Also a attacker can "trap" the broser in spoofed web and
wen the user press f5 or refresh button , the page show
the spoofed content or if the user press ctrl+f5 the page
show the spoofed content , Only in Opera Browser this last
issue does not work.

Testing
##################

I test it with windows xp home sp3 fully patched.
for testing let´s to write some script like:

a.stop();
}
</script>
</body></html>

######## END SOURCE #####

Save it as c:/test/urlspoof.html for example.
I use one alert for show the real window.location.
for testing i have open the file using file:/// protocol handler
and for remote test i have upload the file to a server.
to a apache in windows 2003 and in a apache on linux red hat.

server windows:
Windows Server 2003
Apache/2.2.8 Win32
PHP/5.2.6
Server at ***********.com

server linux:

Apache/2.2.11 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.2.11
OpenSSL/0.9.8e-fips-rhel5
mod_auth_passthrough/2.1
FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 Server
at ***********.com

in all test cases the server send the correct
http response.

#################
Trap issue
#################

All of afected browsers , wen you are in the Fake url
wen you try to reload or refresh the location , via ctrl+f5
or f5 or similar the browser not show a 404 http error,
it continue showing the fake page location.
it is very interesting , because a attacker can create a "ghost" file
in a "ghost" path.
in the case of the fake File, we can spoof any web page on the server
with the fake page and wen the user try to reload it or refresh
the browser shows the fake page not the real page location.
