There are ways to bypass this protection, I was about to report it when I realized someone already did in Russia a few days before :(
Here is the link

It is kind of hard to exploit since default encoding configuration should be changed. But still doable, I found it in one application :)

Subject: Does .aspx protect against sql injection?Any way to bypass it? Cookie SQL Injections?
Hi guys,
I looked at some microsoft documentation (
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e9c4bfaa-af88-4aa5-88d4-0dea898c31b9
), and appear that .NET framework prevent a bunch of web attack classes.
Also appear that this security enhancement is in .NET framework, providing programming functions and features that help to make .apsx applications more safe, however many parts yet are responsible from the developer, like input valudation. So in the reality doesn't appear that .NET framework provide a robust barrier to protect against this attacks (like a web application firewalll, example F5 web firewall), i'm right? Even cause they suggest to use aditional IISLockdown, URLscan, ISAPI filter, etc.
My main doubt is, is there any evasion methods used to bypass this common chcecks provided from .NET framework to difficult SQL injections, XSS, etc?
I made some tests in a new lab machine installed with Windows 2003, SQL server and IIS. All inputed were well validaded, so i were not able to abuse of any sql injection or xss (maybe it's in the .aspx code that were well wrote? Maybe in the .NET framework that prevent some attacks like a web application firewall?
Maybe a IISLockdown + URLScan + ISAPI filter), however I think it doesn't check/filter session values, I made a test setting the "Cookie" value with some chars like quote (as used in sql injection tests via url) and I got this error from the application (showing the server is using a SQL Server):
invalid character value for cast specification
I never tryed to exploit a sql injection in cookie values and never had seen this error before (which appear to be a cast conversion error).... any tip for me? Any document (link) ?
Also I know (cause the server is in my lab) that some this filters in input validation are been made by the .apsx code, cause the developer made it. But a attacker is able to remotly recoganize who is making this checks (if it's in the .aspx code that were well wrote? If in the .NET framework that prevent some attacks like a web application firewall? If is a IISLockdown + URLScan + ISAPI filter)? How?
thank you,
Cheers
