Title: Microsoft IIS ASP Server-Side Include Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Severity: CRITICAL
Description:
A buffer overflow related to the processing requested filenames that are to be included as file includes in ASP scripts has been reported for Microsoft IIS (Internet Information Services).
IIS attempts to ensure that the length of the filename is not excessive in length. A condition exists that may allow for this check to be bypassed, resulting in a potential buffer overflow. This condition affects IIS 4.0, IIS 5.0 and IIS 5.1.
It may be possible, under some circumstances, for a remote attacker to supply a malicious value for the filename, which will be processed by the server. Exploitation requires that the attacker can influence when and how the file is included.
Exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a denial of service or allow for a remote attacker to execute arbitrary instructions on the victim host.
It is important to note that this BugTraq ID is an individual vulnerability entry to followup the aggregated Multiple Remote IIS Vulnerabilities alert released by SecurityFocus.
