Standard configuration or not isn't the issue. The issues are: 1) When the attacker can already run a program on the same machine as the target, the existing vulnerabilities of that environment swamp any theoretical websocket cross-protocol vulnerability. 2) The attacker has to somehow get assigned to the exact same instance as the target. Somehow. I'm not sure how that would be accomplished. 3) The ISP has to be too lazy to add <Limit WEBSOCKET> to their shared http server. 4) The scope of potential targets is limited to those sites unwilling to even pay for its own virtual instance ($11/month on rackspace). Not that hobby sites aren't important to their owners, but you'd need to argue that they're worth the effort of attacking using 1-3. Just to clarify, that's the case we're considering. -- Scott
