        This rule can be subverted because of the content keyword.
        
        Below is an example:
        
http://apps.facebook.com/truthsaboutu/track.php?a=a&r=http://www.securit
ypentest.com
        
        Add two content keywords 'track.php?' and 'r='

------------------------------------------------------------------
                        1. Summary:
                        
                        Once the victim clicks on a specially crafted
Facebook URL they can be redirected to a malicious website.
        
------------------------------------------------------------------
                        2. Description:
                        
                        Facebook applications use of 'track.php?r='
doesn't sanitize the redirection input properly.  This allows an
attacker to input any URL that a victim will get redirected too.  It is
not required for the victim to be login to Facebook for this attack to
work.
                        
                        The following is an example of a vulnerable URL:
        
http://apps.facebook.com/truthsaboutu/track.php?r=http://www.securitypen
test.com
                        
                        The following Google search query can be used to
find vulnerable URLs:
                        site:facebook.com inurl:"track.php?" inurl:"r="
        
------------------------------------------------------------------
                        3. Impact:
                        
                        Potentially allow an attacker to compromise a
victim's Facebook account and/or computer system.
