Programming effort on whose part? If your question is directed to Ryan
specifically, one would have to assume that he could code it up in his sleep
while dreaming of Winona Ryder at the same time.
Besides- it only has to be coded up once. Take Ryan again as an example:
He discovered (or eEye collectively) the index server ISAPI overrun. There
is not doubt that his exploit code was used by the Evil One behind Code Red,
and that code was then used by other copy cats. It would only be
'difficult' the first time.
Denying access of your .asp pages to LocalSystem does and will not keep your
site from being defaced... We'll just change the permissions back (or
completely bypass ntfs perms with rootkits), trash the dir, change the dir,
make a new site, blah blah blah...
