      Multiple Vulnerabilities in w3who ISAPI DLL
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    SUMMARY

    From the
    <http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/default.asp> Windows
    2000 Resource Kit documentation: "W3Who is an Internet Server Application
    Programming Interface (ISAPI) application dynamic-link library (DLL) that
    works within a Web page to display information about the calling context
    of the client browser and the configuration of the host server."

    W3who is vulnerable to two XSS vulnerabilities, and an easily exploitable
    buffer-overflow.

    DETAILS

    CVE Information:
     <http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2004-1133>
    CAN-2004-1133 Cross-site scripting issues in w3who.dll
     <http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2004-1134>
    CAN-2004-1134 Buffer-overflow in w3who.dll

    XSS vulnerability when displaying HTTP headers:
    Sending the following request to the server will cause the script to run
    on the client's browser.
    Connection: keep-alive<script>alert("Hello")</script>

    XSS vulnerability in error message:
    /scripts/w3who.dll?bogus=<script>alert("Hello")</script>

    Buffer overflow when called with long parameter name:
    Providing a long parameter name to the server side script will cause a
    buffer overflow.
    /scripts/w3who.dll?A...[519 to 12571]

    Recommendation:
    Restrict access to the DLL. Do not use it on production servers.

    Vendor Status:
    After notification by Exaprobe, Microsoft choose to remove the web
    download of this component and do not have any plans to issue an updated
    version.
