    Nope, mitigations in EMET are largely different then the ones implemented in Edge/Win10.

    vuln != exploit. I am still convinced that if someone can escape the sandbox of 64-bit Edge, that bypassing EMET, HMPA or MBAE wouldn't be a problem either.

    Not true; it adds exploit mitigation to applications via the OS compatibility layer, which has gotten more robust with each OS--more features (like font AE) are only available in EMET when running under Win10 (see the EMET 5.5 beta Users Guide).

    I don't know how MBAE works or if it adds those capabilities to older OSes--that would be a value added if it did.

    OK, maybe "useless" is a bit harsh here. According to the technet article, Win10 "can make EMET unnecessary on devices running Windows 10", yes, it can (but probably doesn't) make it redundant. So I guess using anti-exploit software is still an important layer of security, despite the fact that Win10 is a more or less secure OS.

    The SWF file has not yet been shared on VT and no analysis is provided for the ROP / shellcode part, so it is hard to make a statement about that.

    The actual question should not be "Does $exploit_mitigation_tool block block exploit X?", but "Does $exploit_mitigation_tool block exploitation techniques A, B and C?" as most exploits can be altered in such a way that they bypass $exploit_mitigation_tool.
     
  8. This seems to work also (registry tweak)

    I can't find a working link to 1.08.1.1040 (and yes, I have tried the link in pbust's signature).

    Thanks but that doesn't work for me either.

    Edit. Its OK now. It turned out my ISP's filter was blocking the download. I have adjusted it to be less cautious.

    I also stated that no matter how I use it I run into the same problem. Even if all I decide to protect are a few key internet facing processes & FF, it still happens. And when I protected SBIE's services on version 1.06 I didn't have any of these problems. In fact... I can protect ALL of that gigantic list that you and others believe to be ill-advised on that version and everything works just fine. When I boot up Windows they are all protected, and no problems.

    And syringe himself even said he saw potential merit in blocking those sandboxie processes after I pointed out doing so, and that he decided he'd added it to his approach even after I had a temporary change of heart. But now everybody is talking about how it's not only useless, but a bad idea, not what it's designed to do, etc... all because the Czar has spoken so of course the lemmings must follow.

    I'm using v1.06 where everything works just fine, and have no plans to upgrade. Will back up this installer to several places.

    No problems with 1043 so far. How do I reset the counter (Blocked Exploit Attempts).

    OK I see. The reason why I wondered is because apparently the exploit writers tried to actively bypass new mitigations in Flash Player.
