Microsoft Internet Information

Microsoft IIS 5.0 and 5.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via an HTTP request with a Host header that contains a large number of "/" (forward slash) characters.

Norton Internet Security 2001 opens log files with FILE_SHARE_READ and FILE_SHARE_WRITE permissions, which could allow remote attackers to modify the log file contents while Norton Internet Security is running.

A certain ActiveX control in adsiis.dll in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (browser crash) via a long string in the second argument to the GetObject method. NOTE: this issue was disclosed by an unreliable researcher, so it might be incorrect.

Adobe ColdFusion MX 7 through 7.0.2, and JRun 4, when run on Microsoft IIS, allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files, list directories, or read source code via a double URL-encoded NULL byte in a ColdFusion filename, such as a CFM file.

Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) 4.0 opens log files with FILE_SHARE_READ and FILE_SHARE_WRITE permissions, which could allow remote attackers to modify the log file contents while IIS is running.

Denial of service in IIS using long URLs.

Microsoft Windows XP has weak permissions (FILE_WRITE_DATA and FILE_READ_DATA for Everyone) for %WINDIR%\pchealth\ERRORREP\QHEADLES, which allows local users to write and read files in this folder, as demonstrated by an ASP shell that has write access by IWAM_machine and read access by IUSR_Machine.

Stack consumption vulnerability in the ASP implementation in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.1, 6.0, 7.0, and 7.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon outage) via a crafted request, related to asp.dll, aka "IIS Repeated Parameter Request Denial of Service Vulnerability."

Microsoft IIS 5.0 and 6.0 allows remote attackers to poison the web cache, bypass web application firewall protection, and conduct XSS attacks via an HTTP request with both a "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" header and a Content-Length header, which causes IIS to incorrectly handle and forward the body of the request in a way that causes the receiving server to process it as a separate HTTP request, aka "HTTP Request Smuggling."

Cross-site scripting vulnerability (XSS) in the missing template handler in Macromedia ColdFusion MX allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary script as other users by injecting script into the HTTP request for the name of a template, which is not filtered in the resulting 404 error message.

IIS 4.0 allows remote attackers to obtain the internal IP address of the server via an HTTP 1.0 request for a web page which is protected by basic authentication and has no realm defined.

IIS 5 and 5.1 supporting WebDAV methods allows remote attackers to determine the internal IP address of the system (which may be obscured by NAT) via (1) a PROPFIND HTTP request with a blank Host header, which leaks the address in an HREF property in a 207 Multi-Status response, or (2) via the WRITE or MKCOL method, which leaks the IP in the Location server header.

IIS 5.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service (hang) via by installing content that produces a certain invalid MIME Content-Type header, which corrupts the File Type table.
