    I checked this out. SANS had an emergency webcast this morning
    in which a lot of security engineers reviewed this bug. Few microsoft
    guys where there who confirmed that OWA uses its own version of WEBDAV
    which overrides the version which is installed by the OS.
    They said the version of WEBDAV in OWA is not vulnerable to this exploit.

    However, I'm still hunting for an exploit to test it. Obviously we don't
    want to upgrade OWA if it can be avoided. We don't know how stable the
    patch is at this point.

    >Someone said that OWA is not at risk so we are not patching it for webdav.

    Is there a definitive statement on this somewhere? I am trying to track
    down for a client whether OWA is vulnerable to this and unfortunately do
    not have an environment where I can test it myself at the moment.

    Any info much appreciated.

    Take care,
