CVE-2001-1186


TITLE

Microsoft IIS Handling forged "Content-Length" Failure causes a denial of service vulnerability

Trust: 0.6

sources: CNNVD: CNNVD-200112-092

DESCRIPTION

Microsoft IIS 5.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via an HTTP request with a content-length value that is larger than the size of the request, which prevents IIS from timing out the connection. If an IIS 5.0 web server is sent a crafted HTTP GET request which contains a falsified and excessive "Content-Length" field, it behaves in an unusual manner. The server keeps the connection open and does not time out, but does not respond otherwise. It is possible that this may be used to cause a denial of service to the web server
