Does anybody know more information in regards to this vulnerability
disclaimed by Inge Henriksen?
"I have found that by doing a malformed anonymous HTTP request one can
remotely crash the IIS service process, inetinfo.exe, using just a simple
tool like a web browser."
More details on the vulnerability: http://ingehenriksen.blogspot.com/
Microsoft's response to this?
Suggestions to mitigate this vulnerability?
