CVE Descriptions

Scripting.FileSystemObject in asp.dll for Microsoft IIS 4.0 and 5.0 allows local or remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via (1) creating an ASP program that uses Scripting.FileSystemObject to open a file with an MS-DOS device name, or (2) remotely injecting the device name into ASP programs that internally use Scripting.FileSystemObject.

EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

Exploit information

Exploit Database EDB-ID : 20989

Publication date : 2001-07-03 22h00 +00:00
Author : VIPER_SV
EDB Verified : Yes

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/2973/info Microsoft IIS is prone to denial of service attacks by local users. This issue is exploitable if the local attacker can create an .asp file which makes calls to various devices names. The local attacker must of course possess the privileges required to create such files. The end result of exploiting this vulnerability is that the server will crash and a denial of services will occur. The affected services must be restarted to regain normal functionality. <% Dim strFileName, objFSO, objFile Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") strFileName = "com1" Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strFileName) Response.Write objFile.ReadAll objFile.Close %>

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/2977/info Microsoft IIS is prone to denial of service attacks by remote attackers. This can occur if the remote attack crafts a URL which tries to pass a script parameter that is a device name. The end result of exploiting this vulnerability is that the server will crash and a denial of services will occur. The affected services must be restarted to regain normal functionality. http://host.int/scripts/script.asp?script=com1
