Unchecked Buffer Could Cause IIS Compromise

Microsoft Windows 2000 supports the World Wide Web Distributed Authoring and Versioning (WebDAV) protocol. WebDAV, defined in RFC 2518, is a set of extensions to the Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) that provide a standard for editing & file management between computers on the Internet. A security vulnerability is present in a Windows component used by WebDAV, & results because the component contains an unchecked buffer.

Affected Software:
Microsoft Windows 2000
